Ginsberg introduced Snyder to the East Coast Beat writers, including Jack Kerouac, while Snyder himself became the model for the serious poet that Ginsberg so wanted to become. Snyder encouraged Ginsberg to explore the beauty of the West Coast and, even more lastingly, introduced Ginsberg to Buddhism, the subject of so many long letter exchanges between them. Beginning in 1956 and continuing through 1991, the two men exchanged more than 850 letters. Bill Morgan, Ginsberg's biographer and an important editor of his papers, has selected the most significant correspondence from this long friendship. The letters themselves paint the biographical and poetic portraits of two of America's most important, and most fascinating, poets. Robert Hass' insightful introduction discusses the lives of these two major poets and their enriching and moving relationship."--Publisher's description. 600 10 $a Ginsberg, Allen, $d 1926-1997 $v Correspondence. 600 10 $a Snyder, Gary, $d 1930- $v Correspondence. 650 0 $a Poets, American $y 20th century $v Correspondence. 650 0 $a Beat generation. 650 0 $a Buddhism. 700 1 $a Snyder, Gary, $d 1930- 700 1 $a Morgan, Bill, $d 1949- 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160824090300.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3E709BCC82A911DE820800E8A7D7520A 994 $a 02 $b IOJInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
