Description

In 1955, poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti began issuing small paperback books of poetry from City Lights Bookshop in San Francisco. Since then the press has published over 230 titles and 1,500 authors. Throughout its history, City Lights Books has reflected a broad range of ideas and fresh thought, publishing writers from every part of the world and cutting across lines of culture, age, and gender. Authors include Jack Kerouac, James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway, Robert Burns, Hilda Doolittle, Diane di Prima, Allen Ginsberg, Goethe, Walt Whitman, Gregory Corso, and Karl Marx. The Cooks provide complete information on all City Lights publications from 1955 through 1990, with full decriptions of title pages, collation, contents, bindings, dates published, and print run. — Testi: Cook Ralph T., Cook Lori A. pagg. 362; BN; rileg. rigida telata.
