He became friends with \u003cb\u003eAllen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac\u003c\/b\u003e, and \u003cb\u003eMichael McClure\u003c\/b\u003e, and played a key role in the explosive poetic revolution of the '50s and '60s. Celebrated for his wisdom and good humor, Whalen transformed the poem for a generation. His writing, taken as a whole, forms a monumental stream of consciousness (or, as Whalen calls it, \"continuous nerve movie\") of a wild, deeply read, and fiercely independent American--one who refuses to belong, who celebrates and glorifies the small beauties to be found everywhere he looks. This long-awaited \u003cb\u003eSelected Poems\u003c\/b\u003e is a welcome opportunity to hear his influential voice again.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45408432291991,"sku":"9780140589184","price":2282.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780140589184.webp?v=1767309886","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/overtime-selected-poems-9780140589184","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
