It seems to me that what some people point to as sentimentality in

Kerouac's work is really the result of a strong strain of nostalgia that

Kerouac shares with America's greatest writers from Cooper to

Fitzgerald.  This nostalgic view, it seems to me, is a direct result of

America's failure to realize its promise or live up to its dream.

might i suggest reading 'storming heaven, the history of lsd in america" by

jay stevens.

it includes priceless anecdotes, including AG and peter o's first trip in

which they appeared naked in tim leary's living room demanding a phone to

call the president and kreuschev (man, spelling is all gone to hell here)

and tell them the secret of peace, lots of other characters as well.

wonderful read informative and fills in much of the gaps between leary camp

and pranksters.

For anyone who wants to know why "sentimentality" is a dirty word when

applied to literature, I refer you to that handy Glossary of Literary

Terms by MH Abrams. Sentimentality is so reviled that it made the glossary

under its own title. Like writing love poems, expressing sentiment without

sentimentality is extremely difficult, when it's so easy to fall into

age-old cliches and simplistic devices. The problem is, as ever, to make

it new, without recourse to excess, or cloying cliche. Does Kerouac

succeed? I'll leave that to the Kerouac crowd.

 

Diane, Burroughs is not entirely free from the attempts at capturing

sentiment. Whenever he talks about his cats, or lemurs, he always runs the

risk of lapsing into a cheap sentimentality, however I think he escapes

it. It was almost a shock to read The Cat Inside for the first time, and

Burroughs himself recognizes it when he says he reads over the notes he

has written about his cats and hears the voice of a simpering old queen.

 

You are correct in that sentiment never appears previously in his work,

and several critics have pointed to the absence of ANY sentiment as a

distinguishing factor-- unless one infers sentiment in the short almost

nostalgic fragments about St. Louis that appear throughout The Wild Boys,

and to a lesser extent Port of Saints, but that's a stretch. There is

certainly no sense of sentimentality in the detached 1-dimensional

characters of NL and the cut-up trilogy.

 

In creating sentiment, Burroughs writes some of his most beautiful lyric

passages in The Ghost of Chance, something Miles remarks on in El Hombre

Invisible. The encounters between Captain Mission and the lemurs are

equally and achingly sad and beautiful, hauntingly poignant.

 

Along with the creation of sentiment in The Cat Inside, we also have the

first instance of a positive portrayal of love. In the cut-up trilogy,

love is the "Love Con": a viral force and the chief weapon of the

Venusians in their desire to maintain their parasitic life by perpetuating

the Myth of Duality. In The Cat Inside, Burroughs' sees his relationship

with his cats and their need for him as a source of beauty;  however he

constructs the power balances involved in the need of the cats in the same

way that he constructed the addictive nature of love in human

relationships. Now, for Burroughs, "need" had always been a dirty word,

and the need for a sexual other in a love relationship was just another

variable in The Algebra of Need. He remarks in The Cat Inside that his

sexual desire has all but disappeared, so it is interesting how the need

for a human sexual other is reviled, but the rise of the need for a

non-sexual feline familiar is celebrated. Somehow the algebra of need

between cat and keeper is beautiful and endearing, while the face of total

need on a human is the ugliest thing there is.

 

What I think a few people missed a while back when discussing Burroughs'

last (written) words, was the affinity he again draws between love and

junk:

 

"Love. The most natural pain-killer. What there is. LOVE."

 

Someone said that it probably should have been that love is the greatest

source of pain, but as the most natural pain killer, like junk, love is

also involved in the addiciton/withdrawal cycle. Burroughs has come full

circle, and reaffirms the cycle of addiction, but this time he accepts it

with resignation, rather than trying to escape. When Fletch dies,

the pain killer is gone and he must feel the horrible experience of

withdrawal. Burroughs opened himself to that love, but the ontological

affirmation "What there is" makes love ineluctable, inevitable.  Love may

ease the pain of living, but its loss focusses that pain to a blinding

intensity.

 

So in a roundabout way, that's how I read Burroughs' last journal entry.

 

Neil

fuck sentimental. i don't know if that is, but if it is i don't know if

there's anything wrong with it, but aww what the fuck, i'm just writing

this cuz i don't have anything to do. sorry i'm sending this but i don't

want to waste my typing time. see, the whole thing with sentimentality is

this, sometimes, when you feel sentimental about something, let's take

Kerouac as kind of an American angel and American tragedy, it expresses

something about the circumstance that another emotion would not express.

there's nothing intrinsically wrong with sentimentality, so if a little of

it appears in Kerouac and Ginsberg, that might be alright. i think as

writers, both these authors expressed an emotional connection to America

and that part of the compassion which the beats claimed to promote might

include sentimentality as a function of it. sorry for this emotional and

senseless post. i'm being forced to face a frustrating life as i write

these very words.

What do you think folks about the Beats --

> sentimental?

 

Thanks Bill for suggesting an interesting thread.

 

Kazin is certainly not the first to accuse the Beats of "spaniel

sentimentality." But one always needs to take someone like Kazin

somewhat seriously.

 

I think that at their best neither JK nor AG are really "sentimental."

Norman Rockwell is sentimental--expurgated, sweetened, etc.  Both JK and

AG are certainly nostaligic and enthusiastic and I think these elements

get confused with sentimentality.  In Kerouac there is a sort of naivete

that can look like sentimentality but isn't.  Jack is not afraid to be

enthusiastic and positive about the things he loves.  Ginsberg also. But

the way Jack pictures Lowell is hardly the way Rockwell would. This

enthusiasm is one of the principle ways that JK and AG rebelled against

the all pervasive irony and fatalism that seem to characterize much of

modernism.  No one ever accused Pound and Eliott and Joyce of being

sentimental.  Kerouac (especially) at his best has a wonderful naive

enthusiasm for his subject matter.  He is certainly in a great American

tradition with this going back through Wolfe to Whitman.  Ginsberg, as

in the passages Matthew quotes, and more so in later, weaker things,

seems to me to verge closer on sentimentality.  But when you hear

Ginsberg read his things he gives the lines a sort of self mocking

irony, (as in Denver being lonesome for her heroes) that makes the line

seem less sentimental than funny.  Ginsberg and Kerouac look back to

enthusiasts and visionaries like Whitman and Blake.  Neither figure was

attractive to the New Critics and their heirs (like Kazin) and the

critical establisment has never tired of flogging them  for this error.

 

I don't follow you, Bill, on your seeing this "sentimental" theme as the

result of American writers having been "failed" by America.  Hell,

America has failed everyone.  No other country I can think of has been

founded with a myth or collection of myths it was expected to live up

to.  Nations that were formed as the result of a king finally being able

to dominate lesser nobles and form a larger enterprise don't have this

problem or having been formed to exemplify an idea. They develop their

national myths long after the fact of their founding.  How seriously did

anyone take Romulus and Remus.  America certainly has failed to live up

to its billing.  The ideas were unrealizable given  the nature of us

humans.  America failed the Puritans (lord if they were to see us now.

Maybe I could give Cotton Mather a pass to Bondage a Go Go at the

Trocadero) just as badly as it failed JK or Fenimore Cooper.

 

Sentimentality is sugar coated and false.  I don't thing our boys are.

Mike,

 

That's too bad.  I don't think I've reread SAGN for twenty years or so

but my friends and I loved it when it came out and it held up well for

me when I reread it in the 70's.  You need some interest and sympathy in

rural life to love it, probably.  But a great story in the Faulknerian

tradition.  Wonderful conflict between the intellectual brother and his

ubermench redneck brother and not flattering to the intellectual side.

Or the union side, and this is hard for academics and liberals to love.

Not a PC book.  But there are great characters and a wonderful story and

great minor characters too, like the wino shake bolt cutter.  But then I

spent a lot of time in Oregon around the logging trade so that adds

something for me--but I hadn't done that yet the first time I read and

loved this book.  Give it another try sometime--it might grab you. And

if you had ever spent a few weeks of winter in any town like Coos Bay,

Newport, Florence, Waldport, etc--you would understand.

Subject:      Sometimes a Great Notion

 

I love Sometimes A Great Notion, which does flip around in time but the

language is beautiful. If you finish the book you are greatly rewarded (if you

have been a careful reader). It is one of those books I re-read every three

years or so, along with ON THE ROAD.

 

But yes, a serious Faulkner influence is in tha book. I was reading Faulkner's

The Bear the other day and thought, 'where have I read this before?' (at least

style-wise). I am surprised how many people have trouble with this book as I

think it is Kesey's best so far.

Rinaldo,

 

I enjoyed the sentimentality of the Zorro and Rin Tin Tin images.  Have

you ever hear Son of Zorro or something like that by Hall and Oates?  It

was on the one album where they tried to make music instead of hits,

Abandoned Lunchenette.(Sp?).  For anyone like me who grew up in the 50's

and was worried to start school because my mom might not let me stay up

to watch Zorro, Rinaldo's poem and Son of Zorro are required reading.

 

I think the song is something like:

 

War baby, son of Zorro.

 

The bold renegade carves a z with his blade, the horseman known as

Zorro.

Slight insomnia went to denny's reading huston smith hindu stuff start

talking with don the 66 year old hitch-hiker.  he described himself as

"i got the face of 25 miles of bad road."  i cackled.  We talked about

everything from here to eternity the broad general view of things and

the specifics of the worrying away of society.  He'd worked at the track

in East Moline so we had kismet from my Rock Island wandering period...

nice real conversation.  He said i looked like a writer.  How nice for

me.  First time i'd really heard that around here.  He's headed to

Chicago or Wisconsin....

 

Back at apartment....deafening silence.  only mechanical sounds ...

fridge, water from other apartments, something missing this morning ...

 

WHO STOLE MY CRICKETS !!!!!!!

A damn choir full of them yesterday morning just musing along and while

i'm off with Don the Hitch-hiker some how someone snuck in here and

sweeped up the whole damn operahouse full.  If you see them say hello.

No rewards - but tell them they're welcome back anytime.

friends,

a new italian writer & On the Road (Sulla Strada),

 

"Jack Frusciate e' uscito dal gruppo"

a novel written by Enrico Brizzi.

Kikka has translated a fragment,

 

saluti

Rinaldo.

 

---

"From the magnetic file of Mister Alex D. I m readin

Kerouac, and don t bother me  cause I m readin  Kerouac,

and I m listenin  to all my records, and I m readin  also

Tondelli and Andrea de Carlo that become my favourite

italian writers.

I don t care about seeing anyone.

I m at my granny s, gettin  ready for my removal, with my

jollinvicta full of coverage books, Bolognese writers

books, a pair of pyjamas and two or three shirts.

Aidi has never seen my house.

At first, when we had just met, we decided that she had to

spend an afternoon at my house, but when I told the

Chancellor so, he kicked up a shindy, and the problem -

ehm - was essentialy that she was a girl.

... And since you have to gain your spaces, and finding

everything on a plate makes no-backboned people and here

we don t need no-backboned people, at most you can do as

some English students, that when invite a girl into their

room unhinge the door.

Really picturesque, but do we need it?

It s respect.

But since I didn t want my parents to look Aidi up and

down all the afternoon, I told her about our dialogue and

- many greetings - she has never been to my house.

When my parents ll be away, such as the day after tomorrow

very very early - my family s shifts are incredible for

the hour they happen such as a quarter to six in the

morning: it s obvious: you re so slow! - my house ll be

closed hermetically, locked up, and who s outside is

outside and who s inside is inside.

And since I want Aidi to see my house after leaving, and

since my parents - provident (!) - took my keys in order

to keep me away from the house, when I came back from

England , I went to a hardware store and I had two copies

of the keys done, in spite of any unforseen event.

The day after tomorrow morning we ll use them to penetrate

the mistery of the submerged flat, and I can not answer

the phone,  cause I do read On the Road, now."

Good morning David and all,

 

+AD4-Slight insomnia went to denny's reading huston smith hindu stuff start

+AD4-talking with don the 66 year old hitch-hiker.  he described himself as

+AD4AIg-i got the face of 25 miles of bad road.+ACI-  i cackled.  We talked

 about

+AD4-everything from here to eternity the broad general view of things and

+AD4-nice real conversation.  He said i looked like a writer.  How nice for

+AD4-me.  First time i'd really heard that around here.  He's headed to

+AD4-Chicago or Wisconsin....

 

You came to Santa Cruz by highway 17. End of twenty miles of twisting and

turning mountain road with unexpected dangerous turns, woods melting into

the rolling hills,

layered to catch the sun from different angles. Man I seen that nameless

dude, or was he, eerie how they all seem to be.  Only on weeknights though.

On weekend late bights early morns our Denny's still gets invaded by the

dressed up young and middling revelers, mooching and smooching and party

weary, some did and some didn't, some didn't yet, some falling asleep on

their dreams, bodies worn by drink, drugs and looks frazzled at the edges.

The air full of chatter, every inch of air full of rising falling chuckles.

A circus of battered dating game officionados, hunters returning from the

streams looking for dolphins, bitten by sharks, you know, fishermen's

stories, mebbe it is a mackerel, almost ready to give up, to call it another

day.  Want to know what the frat kids are wearing? the music they are

hearing, the jokes they are telling, who is

making out with whom, The secretaries and their bosses, the salesmen and

their neighbors, come to Dennys sunday morning, late night morning.

 

On weekdays though the place is a ghost filled with empty shadows, a rumpled

traveller here and there. A homeless person making it through the night with

a few cups of coffee at Denny's. Sometimes a couple sitting on the sidewalk

against

the wall with backpacks beside them. Used to be full of  hikers and bikers

and hippies hitching rides discussing the merits of the latest from

Michuakan.  Now it is more frowning mouths in dirt caked faces, piercing

souls fixing on my eyes for a quarter, mister. I try not to

look. Out of a corner of the eye I see the +ACI-regulars+ACI- few. One got

 always a

cup of coffee in front of him, stacks of frazzled notebooks, and he is

scribbling, scribbling, always noticing that he is noticed, not saying a

word. You remind me David, got to say hello next time I see him.

 

Seldom hear crickets here. Can't remember when I heard those ones. But the

large lawn in front of the house is a living sparkling carpet of frog

symphony in season. Every chair, blade of grass full of sound, constant,

incessant,

total, excited , no room for anything in the world down there endless

timeless, not going anywhere, we are all here now,  one steady song on and

on and

on, i have waited, but always been outwaited. No change, no stop. The

thought of

stepping on that grass drives me further away from it. First time I heard it

coming home I didn't know what in the hell that was about. Maybe it was a

strange new miniature sprinkler system, not quite hissing but something like

that in there also, newfangled technology my first expectation. But it had

just rained. Was still drizzling. Come to find out it happens only after

rains. But they will be there. After four years here I can count on these

frog song fests, although only sometimes. Usually I am surprised after

giving up the wait. Where do they come from? Where do they go? Always there,

unheard of, unseen? Transported by the rain drops for a National convention?

Jubilee? Never saw one yet. I keep looking for one. Just one. Never.

 

Someone said they are the size of a thumb-nail. Frogs? Can it be?

I know them when I hear them though. My head is full of their sound. That's

another thing, their sound fills my head, no space left for anything else.

Wish I had the words to describe them like some music critic examining the

after taste of nature.

 

To relevate the topic - are they beat? Telling us something we could learn

to understand? Beating the bushes.

 

I am off again, to work again , have a good Tuesday, ciao

 In the introduction of the italian edition of JK's Big Sur I have found

the name of William Emerson who later became a dominican monk.

 Does anybody know something about him ?

 Was he a writer or a person of JK's entourage in the late 50's ?

 

Ciao.

 

Francesco

Hi dear folks,

 

Again I need your help. Is there any signs or references in Burrough=B4s

works or Ginsberg=B4s about the gay porntheatre BIJOU in the Lower East Side

in N.Y.C. (near 2nd Avenue and 5th Street). I heard that Burroughs as well

Ginsberg  might have been a regular there. Is there any place called BIJOU

that is mentioned?

And, by the way, do you know something about Allen=B4s social life, where

were his faviourite spots in the city etc.

Is there any refences in the texts whatsoever, please, write to the list.

 

Thank you very much,

 

Matthias Schneider (Berlin)

No, he was part of the Bay Area scene that Kerouac & Co.plugged into.  His

name was William Everson, but he was known for many years as Brother

Antoninus.  He later renounced his vows, rejoined the world and became

poet-in-residence at UC Santa Cruz (if you can really call that "joining the

world").  He's no longer with us, but I forget the details.

 

I'm sure others on the list know a lot more about him than I do...

 

Onward,

 

John Maynard

Just went there, and read your previous list.  I'd only expunge Mailer

(He's WWII journalism school)  but I don't like his stuff anyway...

 

I'd like to comment that there are quite a number of deceased members on

The List who's birth and death dates are not included.  They really

should be.  Lew Welch is notable for me.  (But I don't remember his.

'69?)  Minor quibble.  Exhaustive list.  I'll have to copy it here.

Thank You.

Rinaldo -

        very good list, but Allen Ginsberg's pseudonyms need to be looked at - His

name in The Dharma Bums was Irwin Garden not Irving and his name in The

Subterraneans was Adam Moorad not Morand.  These need to be changed.  Thanks.

Everson's "Blood of the Poet" is a classic.

At UC Santa Cruz he set up an old hand press

and produced wonderful broadsides

and books. My brother inlaw worked with him,

as a student. The press sits waiting for

new hands to work the ink, set the letters,

stamp words into handmade paper...

that's a fairly good translation.  i would add though that the lines with

"c'est le port/si fort" carries extra hidden meaning in english, as

Kerouac's purportedly favorite wine was port. hmm.

 

so interesting how he can combine french and english to convey different

meanings.

 

also, i'm not completely sure, as i don't have a french dictionary on me,

but i believe that "melieus" means circles and not "best," as in your

translation.

Poet named William Everson.  I've read that he was associated with the Beats

while he was in a monestery and was nicknamed "The Beatnik Monk."  I read a

wild ride of a poem of his in college called "The Screed of the Flesh."  Saw a

photo of him looking every bit as wild and haggard as I'm told John the

Baptist

looked when he lived in the wilderness eating nothing but locusts and frogs.

 

Everson seemed to emulate another poet named Robinson Jeffers about whom I

know absolutely nothing save a poem called (I think) "Fire in the Hills," the

last line of which reads:

 

          "The destruction that brings an eagle from heaven

                is better than mercy..."

 

I think both (Everson definitely) are associated with the San Francisco

Renaissance.

William Everson was a SF Beat poet and was married to Mary Fabilli. Her

linoleum-block artwork accompanied two of his poems, "Triptych for the

Living," and "Heavenly City, Earthly City."  Other works include "A Frost

Lay White on California" and "The Poet is Dead" (written for Robinson

Jeffers).

 

After Mary gave Bill a copy of  St. Augustine's "Confessions," he became so

enthralled with the Roman Catholic Church that he converted to Catholicism,

had their marriage annulled, and joined the Dominican Friars as Brother

Antoninus. He left the order in 1969 and died in 1984.

 

"Women of the Beat Generation" (my source for these tidbits of info on

Everson) inlcudes a piece by Mary Norbert Korte entitled "Remembering Bill

Everson, Poet."

SPRING 1947. In THOSE days ARK was a

opening page of the magazine is devoted to an Editorial that begins:

 

      " In direct opposition to the debasement of human values made

flauntingly evident by the war, there is rising among writers in America, as

elsewhere, a social consciousness which recognizes the intergrity of the

personality as the most substantial and considerable of values. However, this

recognition is still restricted to either small groups or to isolated

individuals, and has few organs of expression."

 

     Sound familiar? Then the list of contributors will as well, among them

Kenneth Rexroth, James Laughlin, Robert Duncan, William Everson, Thomas

Parkinson, and -- wait for it -- Philip LAMANTIA who contributes a single

poem called "Another Autumn Coming."

Mime-Version: 1.0

Looking at the list of beats put together by Rinaldo Rasa reminded me of a

question which occasionally comes to mind:

 

Where does William T. Vollman (Thirteen Stories and Thirteen Epitaphs,

Whores for Gloria, You Bright and Risen Angels, The Atlas) fit into the

constellation of this genre/movement?

 

I've read several of his travelogue/essays, some of his short stories and a

couple of his novels, and it seems to me that he shares many of the

qualities thought of as "beat". He has previously been grouped into the

avant-pop (check the anthology, Yesterday's Crash) although I don't see him

sitting there as nicely as Paul Auster, Tom Robbins, or Don Delilo.

 

Is anyone else on the list familiar with this writer? Care to comment? Vote

him on or off the list?

 Minor correction:

 

William Everson died on April 4, 1996. He was teaching at University of

California at Santa Cruz until his death. He was dearly appreciated by by

his students, the faculty and the Community of Santa Cruz.

Diane,

 

Some of these folks belong on the list as forerunners.  Roethke, I would

also have doubts  about.  I flatly disagree with Rinaldo about William

Inge, but that's life.  Robinson Jeffers I think might belong on the

list as a sort of progenitor, like Henry Miller, Patchen, etc.

\

I think this list is a great service  to folks just trying to find their

way into the Wide World of Beat.  I think we should also get more

painters, dancers, musicians for a fuller picture.  I like the fact that

this list tends to be more inclusive than exclusive.  It is easy to

chose for ourselves who to delete, but the addition of interesting folks

gives us new things to look at.

I want to know how a soap opera playwright like William

Inge makes the list.  This would-be Tennessee Williams

wrote teary memoirs of sad people, many of them women. He

was a veritable Fanny Hurst of the Great White Way, though I

will agree his material was generally much better than hers.

His worst stuff came close to Hurst, though.  He was a weeper,

not a Beat.

Its scarier that it used to be.  I hitchhiked between ages 12 and

24.  I hitchhiked for a short distance last Fall when my car ran

out of gas.  But its scarier to be a hitchhiker and scarier to be

a driver encountering a hitchhiker.  Because there has been a lot

of fear instilled in Americans about everyone from big city blacks

to serial killers and pedophiles, to mention only a few of the

negative stereotypes that fill our newspapers these days.  I think

you have to be generally young to get a ride, even in the On the

Road days.  I don't pick up a hitchhiker unless he or she looks

young and innocent.

Hello,

If you are in Australia you might be interested in The Art of tripping,

showing at 11:15pm, this Sunday, on SBS.  It looks into the connection

between artists and drugs.  Part two is showing this Sunday and I think

it'll feature some of the beat gen., as part one, last Sunday, dealt with

the pre 1940's.

Not as easy and therefore nowhere near as common. I drove 20 days, 6,500

miles cross country on Route 20 last fall partly commemorating the old

hitchhiking days, the 30,00 miles traveled with thumb and back 25 years

ago. Did not see even one lone hitchhiker that whole way! It was

disappointing, but I guess understandable.

 

I still pick up hitchhikers when I see them and have never had a negative

experience. I think people are basically good but there's a fear mentality

that dominates much of late 20th century America.

I talked at some length with Don-the-hitchhiker-at-Denny's who is 66 and

fits the stereotypes of the hobo that are no longer nostalgically

understood.  He smells.  He has old worn clothes.  He smokes

cigarettes.  He is a "drinker".  And he has a face "that looks like 25

miles of bad road."

 

Don verified your comments here about the role of youth.  He says it is

far easier for the young folks to get rides.  I believe he may have even

used the word innocence.  He said that it is not uncommon for him to

walk 20 miles between somebody giving him a ride.  BUT he was not bitter

about the youth advantage in hitchhiking.  He proudly showed how fit he

was at 66 and credited it to walking so much.

Don-the-hitchhiker-at-Denny's didn't seem to think that the dangers were

so great.  He recognized the perception of danger being much greater

than they used to be.  Almost to a level of paranoia by all on the road

as well as the relatives of those on the road.  We talked about these

fears and worries and fear and worry in general and then when we were

talking about the turning of the century we talked some about how the

events of the 20th century have instilled a great fear and worry in all

walks of life.  The dangers and risks associated in hitchhiking were

just seen as another manifestation of this overarching expansion of fear

in our society -- probably related to a greater awareness of dangers

than an increase in the dangers themselves.

Interesting.  Nice little verse as well.  Your comments seem to mirror

so much of what i heard from Don-the-hitchhiker from Dennys.  I wonder

if the rarity of your seeing hitchhikers is because they have moved to

different roads.  It seems the most likely rides are in vehicles

traveling the Interstates.  Rest areas and Truckstops are always a good

place to find these supposedly extinct creatures.  Late night Dennys

near interestate are an especially wonderful spot.

your line "hitchhike to the moon" brings to mind a large print phrase

attributed to William Burroughs that went something like this ...

"Travel is necessary, Living isn't."  This attitude of course is at odds

with precisely the fears and worries and anxieties that are stifling

hitchhiking and making it into a lost art in America.  BUT hitchhiking

to the Moon is an interesting and fun idea.  Like the stow-aways on

vehicles of all kinds.  Gaining passage.  And then wonder if the travel

capabilities outside the earth's mesosphere will ever reach the point

where one might "thumb a rocket ride"?????  Fascinating to contemplate.

their thumbs. Came back all the way from Minnesota safe and sound, by the

Interstate Truck Stops? Hmmm. But how do they get there?

I agree.  I have a friend who used to gripe about the books I chose to

include on my Beat bookshelf.  He liked to claim that the only *true* Beat

writers had to have been mentioned in "Howl" (which is rather limiting

things to Kerouac, Huncke, Cassady, Carr, Solomon, Burroughs, and, oddly

enough, Tuli Kupferburg).

hitchiking in smaller communities is a very cool way to meet the grass-roots

community of an area that you are stuck in during a cross-country trip or

something.  But for the most part,  from my experiance,  just walking down

the road with your thumb out is becoming increasingly extinct.  Rest stops

certainly are good for picking up rides.

 

the fear complex in america about hitchiking and hitchikers is not totally

unwarranted.  I would never hitchike without a knife (or atleast a sharpened

screwdriver or something) balanced in my sock for easy access.  I have heard

quite few horror stories.  Especially from people combing the west coast

(from seattle to LA usually).  But once you get a ride its usually obvious

right of the bat if the driver has an ulterior motive and you can always

fake that your town is the next right or something and assert yourself if he

disagrees with a little raised voice and if need be,  allusion to violence.

Most people are just as afraid of you in that situation as you are of them.

Whatever.  just some realism stuff.  Hitchhiking is far from idylic these

days.

This is from Kerouac in Big Sur, and this was about 32 years ago:

 

"This is the first time I've hitch hiked in years and I soon begin to see

that things have changed in America, you can't get a ride any more (but

of course especially on a strickly tourist road like this coast highway

with no trucks and no business)--Sleek long stationwagon after wagon

comes sleering by smoothly, all colors of the rainbow and pastel at that,

pink, blue, white, the husband is in the driver's seat with a long

ridiculous vacationist hat with a long baseball visor making him look

witless and idiot--Beside him sits wifey, the boss of America, wearing

dark glasses and sneering, even if he wanted to pick me up or anybody up

she wouldn't let him--But in the two deep backseats are children,

children, millions of children, all ages, they're fighting and screaming

over ice cream, they're spilling vanilla all over the Tartan

seatcovers--There's no room anymore anyway for a hitch hiker, tho

conceivably the poor bastard might be allowed to ride like a meek gunman

of silent murderer in the very back platform of the wagon, but here no,

alas! here is ten thousand racks of drycleaned and perfectly pressed

suits and dresses of all sizes for the family to look like millionaires

every time they stop at a roadside dive for bacon and eggs...So here I am

standing in that road with that big woeful rucksack but also probably

that expression of horror on my face after all those nights sitting in

the seashore under giant black cliffs, they see in me the very

apotheosical opposite of their very vacation dream and of course drive

on--That afternoon I say about 5 thousand cars or probably 3 thousand

passed me not one of them ever dreamed of stopping..."

In the mid-1960s for over a year, Allen Ginsberg (the very same, I am

sure) offered from a New York addresss via a full-page color ad in the

comics pages of the San Francisco Chronicle (such ads were often placed

in the comics during the 60's)--for $5 per year or $10 for a "lifetime

subscription", a monthly or semi-monthly publication called MONEY or

YOUR MONEY or some such short title with MONEY in it.  It was the first

of its kind; a nearly identical version has recently started publishing

this year, edited and promoted by one Martin Edelston at a Boulder, CO

address, called Bottom Line/PERSONAL and deals with ways to save, make,

spend and otherwise get the best deal in every area of money management.

 

MONEY claimed to be an inside report (what "they" DON'T want you to

know). I recall that (1) I paid $5 for one year, then renewed at $10

(for life) and it went out of business within a few months afterward

with no refund for remaining issues.  I am absolutely sure that this was

Allen Ginsberg's venture.  Any verification of that in your background

information on him?

 

Incidentally, can you advise me via e-mail how to contact his estate to

obtain permission to use several of his photos from his PHOTOGRAPHS book

(1990-Twelvetrees Press) to illustrate a book of poetry I wrote in the

unrhymed verse of the Beat era (during the years between '57 and '61

.  I would never hitchike without a knife (or atleast a sharpened

screwdriver or something) balanced in my sock for easy access.

 

That is one of the fears that keeps me from picking up a hitchiker on the

rare occasions when I do see one. It just seems harder to trust strangers

these days.

 

Hey,  there was a time when we said inhale deeply, aaah, the breath was so

fresh, pores opened up, dirt rolling off the skin, you could see it all

around you, fresh faces with sparkling eyes, breathing out freely, taking it

all in, gentler everybody. Then came swallow it, wow, soaring spirits,

mutual encouragement, a real pleasure to run into each other, the world was

free for giving  and taking. Hitching a ride meant meeting new people,

enjoying more the trip of life, getting more places with a little help from

friends.

 

That fresh breath entered a polluted world. It was not enough to banish the

harsh laws of survival on this planet. You can still see a spark here and

there, no getting completely buried in the monstrous machinery. But the

machinery produces

new toys to play aroound with, to make tools of. Like at this moment we

signal to each other across vast distances.  Hello there. We are heading for

a future unlike the past. that the past didn't even imagine.  But at the

moment I will be late for work if I

don't stop.

 

ciao

 Awesome Diane. Seems like things are moving right along. Where is the

Kerouac of today, with that magnificent way,  that he could bring alive to

us the majesty of the sweeping view, the spectacular spectacles of  the

strands that wove it all together, too awesome for words, except maybe

Kerouac's words. I am searching for words and I ain't no Kerouac, those not

being my gifts, but there will be others. We will see more of them I am

sure.

 

Still, about thirty two years ago in Santa Cruz, and on highway one up and

down the coast, and all the way To San Francisco or Big Sur to the South,

the territory that we covered, hitchiking and hitchikers were in bloom and

flower brightening the already soaring spirits at the time. I guess Jack was

hanging around then much closer to the mainstream engines of America, and

the people and things that fueled them, kept them working, then I was.

 

Now those steamrollers have rolled over us too. Not many hitchikers around

us either any more. But we did survive+ACE-  Getting up and shaking of the dust,

with a clearer focus that can bring into view the worlds that even Jack then

didn't see, or want to look at.

 

Now I am running off to work.

But seriously, folks...

 

I don't really know why we all got the idea (or when) that hitching/picking

up hitchers had BECOME dangerous. I don't think it's any more or less

dangerous than it ever was.

 

I hitched in the Sixties and Seventies, got paranoid in the Eighties, and I

have hitched in the Nineties. And when I'm driving, I almost always pick up

hitchers, most of whom enrich my life.

 

For me, it's a thing I refuse to give up, this hitchhiker thing. As soon as I

do, I know I'm gonna go straight, which is a fate worse than death (the

straight life IS death).

 

My kid (now almost 18) started hopping freights and hitching when he was 15,

much to my maternal chagrin. However, I couldn't deny the benefit of the

experience for him. Of course, if I'd had my way, he'd still be asking my

permission to cross the street (but that's another story), and maybe hitching

and riding the rails is the extreme response to an overly protective parent

(is that why jack did it?) but I really believe we make too much of something

that's been unfairly awfulized into being dangerous.

 

Lotta great stuff in literature about hitching, too. One hitching anecdote

that has always stood out for me is near the end of "Blue Highways" by

William Least Heat Moon, where he picked up a hitcher in my neck of the

woods. I don't have the book and can't even paraphrase it, but his

experience, for me, seemed standard fare and well worth reading today.

 

Bottom line: I trust my instincts. I pick up hitchers whose vibes are right,

and I take rides from cars based on the same system. I have had some

frightening moments, but I think that's to be expected.

 

Surrendering the freedom of the hitched ride to the dismal fears of today

just seems wrong to me. There's a whole huge aspect of living that one misses

when one passes a hitcher by, or never sticks out his/her thumb.

 

I say, Let's all get out there and hitch a ride and change "reality..."

 I didn't think Jack  was telling us much here about the difficulties of

hitchiking, in this jewel of a treat,, his cartoonlike exaggerations of the

american middle class family for a moment together in their station wagons

on a vacation trip, strokes of genius, such a treat to read, thank you Diane

for this surprise great pleasure, still he thinks that he looks too scary

for folks to give him a ride. He says:

 

            +AD4APg-but also probably

+AD4APg- that expression of horror on my face after all those nights sitting in

+AD4APg- the seashore under giant black cliffs, they see in me the very

+AD4APg- apotheosical opposite of their very vacation dream and of course drive

+AD4APg- on-

 

Was this the point Diane? Scary looking people never get invited for a ride?

 

My earlier response was my sadness that Jack was so unhappy that he looked

at the dark side  that he had for whatever reasons to wallow in his

depressed outlook where the bright things that were happening were not

visible to him. That area, at that time, was just beautiful hitchiking land.

I know because I was a frequent rider on that coast highway. That was Big

Sur area he was speaking of, no and a couple of years more than 32?

having spent a hair-raising semester in '71 in richmond, va. let me tell

you it was scary even then, hitchhiking as a hippy chile and all.

hitchhiked with base ball bat. the conservatives (including grey haired

grandmother types) threw shit out of windows at us, blacks and white men

both were crusing to pick up hippie girls and do whatever depraved and

sadistic thing they could think of. but then, i also waited at bus stops

with bb bat to avoid getting jumped and pulled into cars (happened to two

friends of mine they were raped and battered)  hitchiked to see zappa once

and that was the end of my hitchhiking in the south (actually had to use

the bb bat, assholes thought i was bluffing.

and, as a matter of fact, riding my bike cross town in richmond safest if i

rode through the ghetto than downtown city ...

last time i hitched a ride in new england i had to talk this sleazy guy

into going off interstate to 'a motel i know' only to jump out at first red

light.

up here  in vermont, it's a little gentler and kind, but i hesitate. and

irony is that now i have no car. but won't hitch a lift no moe.

leon, thanks for the memory! being picked up by fellow fellaheens on the

road usually led to tripping, toking, getting out and showing the sights to

fellow voyagers interior and exterior

mc

Hey,  there was a time when we said inhale deeply, aaah, the breath was so

fresh, pores opened up, dirt rolling off the skin, you could see it all

around you, fresh faces with sparkling eyes, breathing out freely, taking it

all in, gentler everybody. Then came swallow it, wow, soaring spirits,

mutual encouragement, a real pleasure to run into each other, the world was

free for giving  and taking. Hitching a ride meant meeting new people,

enjoying more the trip of life, getting more places with a little help from

friends.

no; in fact in _Big Sur_ Jack Kerouac wrote something to the effect,

"No rides, a sign" (this is a paraphrase).

I hitched probably over 200,000 miles over the years between 1967 and

1979.  most of the trips were up and down all the way on highway 1 on

the coast,San Diego to Seattle, or La to San Fransico, over and over,

Highway 70 from kansas to California about 12 times, sometimes up

(north)sometmes down (south), then 70 to boston, New York, Maine about 5

times. Twice through canada, straight up and over back down through New

york,  One of the sweetest time was a long ride through mexico in the

back of a dump truck with a large extened family.  I had three bad

moments, all in the midwest, kc, omaha, and outside of emporia. I was

never raped, but hit hard once in Kc and scared and mauled.  Offered

money for sex more often in california.

 I did a lot of road theatre, lied through my teeth, sometimes took to

do you know jesus? (an antiaphrodisiac) almost always had little odd

gifts to give people to "pay" my way..

        One day my tv was on and was watching a nice looking guy, relaxed, talk

bout some legal situation in Colorado, turned up the tv and slowly

figured out it was ted bundy, that moment put more fear into me than the

trucker i fled from across the fields near omaha.

        I still occasionally pick up hikers, i am on the intersection of I 70

and highway 59 . my friend Jamie Grow, i write his name so that he might

be remembered, disappeared after giving a rider to two lesbians from

arkansas to kansas, he never found kansas.  i dreamt once he was under

the water of a muddy stream.  The hardest hiking times were in New York

where i discovered i suffered from a bad case of prejudice.  mean

hearted people in New York state, nasty sense of humors, but no one

tried to rape me.  God I loved stomping my foot on a mountain, cresting

a hill on the grapevine, seeing the colors of the soil change, grabbing

a guys butt and watching his expression as it got later at night and he

thought he got lucky.  hey I know this is not beat related but I found

just loved thinking about those trips,

I'm not sure if I can explain what he meant by rationalism, but I have read

the Alienist, and it is most defientely NOT Beat Literature.  It's very

traditional, as far as writing technique goes.  The story is told--I'm

assuming it was a letter--about 25 years after the events happened.

Basically, there's this serial killer running around New York just before

the turn of the century murdering boy prostitutes.  And the narrator was a

part of an under-cover team assembled to  stop the killer.  It's a good

story, well-thought out & obviously a lot of research went into the book,

but in my humble opinion it's no lasting masterpiece.  What bothered me the

most about the story was that the style Caleb chose to write the book

in--the whole looking-back-at-these-events-well-after-they've-happened

bit--is completely unrealistic given the amount of detail in the book.  And

I think he did want it to be a believable story, but there's no way someone

could remember every minute detail of these events the way the narrator of

this book does, & it's made clear throughout that he is, in fact, reminiscing.

 

Caleb is Lucien's son, and a writer, but I wouldn't include him on Rinaldo's

Ultimate Beat-Writer list.

remeber that story about the "hook"? you know that guy who scares

funny how nostalgia is perrenial and that Kerouac felt the breakdown in

community; beatness was its symptom. this is not specifically related to

the issue of hitching but in a general way:

 

The sins of America are precisely that the streets . . . are empty where

their houses are, there's no sense of neighborhood anymore, a neighborhood

quarter a neighborhood freeforall fight between two streets of young

husbands is no longer possible . . .(VC 261).

Burroughs believed in pooks and sprites etc...A person who didn't share such

beliefs or worldview entailing supernatural as something literal and

tangible would describe his or her view as rational vs Burrough's view

irrational.

 

I also think Diane Homza made very good points in terms of a writing style

or method to use that could also be seen as a comparison of rational vs

irrational.

 

I've talked about Caleb Carr here a few times because he wrote a book I read

that I quite liked called The Devil Soldier.  It was about Frederick

Townsend Ward who was an American who became a soldier of fortune type and

eventually ended up in China leading a group of soldiers for the Qing

Dynasty government against the Tai Ping Tien Kuo (Heavenly Peace Kingdom),

called the long hairs who were trying to overthow the Emperor and his

regime.  Ward's army was called the Ever Victorious Army.  It's a good

interesting book.

 

I didn't read the Alienist but I also think this book, Devil Soldier,

reflects on the rational vs irrational path he talks about in that it is a

straightforward well foot-noted scholarly biography.  It is to his credit as

a writer that it reads like a novel.  In terms of the rational vs irrational

he could have easily told this story in "experimental" or irrational ways

but chose to do a "rational" straightforward biography.

 

About the younger Carr as a beat, he did rebel as he states above.

I'm afraid not, Yan.  It's illegal in many places.  Most depressing thing

in the world is to see a road sign with a thumb up held with a big red

slash across it.  and you read or hear about people getting killed, raped

. . . all the time .  I was lucky enough to hitch 1600 miles down the

Alaskan-Highway last year, through Canada.  It was fairly easy for us.

But Canada and Alaska are a lot different than the rest of the U.S.

 

i like your little poem.  reminds me of Jack's "Visions of America."

Another thing, they usually won't let you hitchhike on the

interstate.  You have to hitchhike from the on ramp if

anywhere.  I discovered that when I hitchhiked home from

the UW Madison in the 60s.  So you are not going to see

hitchers on interstates, but you would in the day of Route

66.  I still see hitchers off the major roadways, but not

like I used to.

I think its clear.  He believes in realism.  The Beats, especially

Kerouac, were clear romantics, who could believe in any pipedream.

Caleb Carr is not a romantic.

no, only easy thing to do now is hitchhike on the net; folks in chat rooms,

irc & at ends of internet connections still talk to strangers, pass ideas
