Revolutionary Letters; Diane Di Prima Last Gasp 0867196602 / 9780867196603 PAPERBACK
New
0867196602 Revolutionary Letters is an American classic arising from the utopian anarchism for which Diane di Prima has long been a spokesperson. first of these poems were written during the active days of the late 1960s, and published by the underground press throughout the U.S. and abroad. new poems in this edition address some of the history of the past twenty years, and were written as the various occasions arose. "Diane di Prima is the original outlaw poet; she wrote herself a wild, authentic life without regard for the rules during an era when being such a female creature was truly transgressive. Her writing is crucial as history; as literature it is enduring and bewitching. She illuminates the female experience while simultaneously bowing to its final, holy mystery." -Michelle Tea. "A few people like her get made every few thousand years, in order to highlight the dullness of the rest." -Andrei Codrescu. Diane DiPrima is the author of 42 books of poetry and prose, including Pieces of a Song (City Lights, 1990). Her work has been translated into at least twenty languages.
