Beat Scene 37 -- Bukowski, Neal Cassady, Patchen, John Martin, John Fante

Kevin Ring’s Beat Scene magazine is a treasure for Bukowski and Beat fans alike. I’m in the “never the twain shall meet” camp, but in this case the exception is deserved. Plus, Kevin’s a good guy who put a lot of work and high production value into each issue of the magazine.

For Bukowski fans, there are reviews of the books Bukowski in Pictures and Open All Night. There is also an interview with Black Sparrow Press publisher John Martin
