Description

Allen Ginsberg's Kaddish, along with the more celebrated Howl, is one of the most important and influential American poems of the twentieth century. This deluxe hardcover fiftieth-anniversary edition of Kaddish and Other Poems features an illuminating afterword by Ginsberg biographer Bill Morgan, as well as previously unpublished photographs, documents and letters relating to the composition of the poem.
