David S. Wills’ new book, World Citizen: Allen Ginsberg as Traveller, is now on sale.
World Citizen looks at the life of this fascinating poet-traveller, who visited 66 countries, sometimes staying on the road for years at a time. The book asks to what extent these journeys shaped Ginsberg’s personality, his politics, and his poetry.
