Beat Scene 45 -- Jack Micheline, Ginsberg, Brautigan, Nanao Sakaki, Helen Weaver

Kevin Ring’s Beat Scene magazine is a treasure for Bukowski and Beat fans alike. I’m in the “never the twain sha ll 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. There’s no Bukowski related articles in this one, but it’s a great issue for Beat fans.
