Harold Chapman, Beats à Paris: Paris und die Dichter der Beatgeneration 1957–1963

OMC Gallery Dusseldorf/Huntington Beach and Michael Kellner teamed up to finally get this book in print. These images hitherto were only available in a small paperback circulating in the early '80s. This is one of the few visual documentations of the 'Beat Hotel' days, when Brion Gysin, William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Gregory Corso and many more loged at this tiny rooming house in Paris' Left Bank. German text with English translation insert. We have a few copies for sale in the "books & CDs" section of our site. Copies should be available at City Lights in San Francisco, and St. Mark's Books in New York, or by contacting OMC Gallery more>>
