The design and typography have that lovely pre-digital texture — courier type, awkward spacing, earnestness leaking through the margins. A good object for readers and collectors interested in Beat studies, Kerouaciana, little magazines, literary counterculture, and the slightly strange European reception of American postwar rebellion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaperback anthology, edited by Rudi Horemans and published by EXA Publishers, Antwerp, Belgium, 1985.
