The Fall of America is a collection of poems by the acclaimed author Allen Ginsberg, offering a bleak and vigorous vision of the American nightmare, as opposed to the American dream. Originally published in 1973, this book has become a prophetic work, exploring themes of sex, drugs, religion, and politics. This edition, published by Visor Libros, includes the version of Antonio Resines.
Irwin Allen Ginsberg was an American poet and writer. As a student at Columbia University in the 1940s, he began friendships with Lucien Carr, William S. Burroughs and Jack Kerouac, forming the core of the Beat Generation. He vigorously opposed militarism, economic materialism and sexual repression and he embodied various aspects of this counterculture with his views on drugs, sex, multiculturalism, hostility to bureaucracy and openness to Eastern religions.
