In 1957, the poem became the target of a landmark obscenity trial. "Howl" was published in the 1956 collection Howl, and Other Poems. They rebelled against conventional post- World War II morality, materialism, consumerism, and war, and embraced spontaneous expression, sexual freedom, alternative lifestyles, spiritual search, and experimentation with drugs. The Beats were a group of American writers who came to prominence in the mid-1950s and early 1960s. Ginsberg's passionate performance of the poem established him as an important figure in the antiestablishment Beat movement. Allen Ginsberg's "Howl" was first introduced to the public at a poetry reading on Octo(some sources say October 7), at the Six Gallery in San Francisco. ![]() ![]() ![]() In The Splendid and the Vile, Erik Larson shows, in cinematic detail, how Churchill taught the British people “the art of being fearless.” It is a story of political brinkmanship, but it’s also an intimate domestic drama, set against the backdrop of Churchill’s prime-ministerial country home, Chequers his wartime retreat, Ditchley, where he and his entourage go when the moon is brightest and the bombing threat is highest and of course 10 Downing Street in London.

Semi-autobiographical and hugely popular, Donald Miller’s second book, Blue Like Jazz, is basically a collection of essays on the nature of God and Christianity.

The first and one of the most memorable stories is that of June Kashpaw, who meets her death in a blizzard on Easter Sunday. Sister Leopolda carries a long wooden pole meant for opening high windows, but instead of its intended use, she uses the pole to beat Satan out of her. Set on the Chippewa reservation in North Dakota, the stories focus on the Kashpaw, the Lamartine/Nanpush, and the Morrisey families.
