Om denne bog
A political and intellectual history of American counterculture and the historical figures who redefined mainstream understandings of freedom, culture, art, and politics—from The Beat Generation to Basquiat

This entertaining, intellectual history fulfills the growing appetite for marginalized narratives. Counterculture brilliantly interrogates the diversity of counterculture and the interwoven relationship between each individual legacy. From Anarchism to the Harlem Renaissance, Alex Zamalin unveils the humanity behind these romanticized figures and popularized movements to capture revolutionary freedom in action.

American counterculture, defined as a movement whose values are outside and oppositional to mainstream norms and whose practices fundamentally reject what is socially respectable, ultimately transformed the 20th century.

With key players:
  • Emma Goldman
  • Billie Holiday
  • Allen Ginsberg
  • Amiri Baraka
  • Jean-Michel Basquiat

And key movements:
  • Anarchism
  • Black Bohemia
  • The Harlem Renaissance
  • The Beat Generation
  • The Black Arts Movement
  • Hip-Hop

Counterculture reaches new depths, tackling a wide range of historical, social, and political topics, and expanding contemporary understandings of American cultural tradition.

At a time when counterculture was on the outskirts of American society, Alex Zamalin explores the reason why.
