As a teenager, Von Vogt lived above her brother John Clellon Holmes' apartment (he wrote the first Beat novel, Go) and she shared many experiences with the crowd that hung out there - Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, Neal Cassady and others. Her memoir presents an insider's look at the Beat generation and captures the spirit of those years in NYC. Glossary has brief bios of more than 75 prominent figures of the era mentioned in the book, including many musicians.
