Download or read book Ginsberg Rolls Over written by Douglas McDaniel and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2008-07-14 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project started during the massive Bull Run Fire in 2006 in the mountains of central Arizona, and led to a series of serial moves around the West: to Oregon, then back to Arizona. It took on full steam when, out of boredom, the author mused away the long summer hours while working behind the cash register of a big box book store, and then was kept aflame as McDaniel toiled as a reporter in Telluride, Colorado, as the poetic side of the author quietly pursued the hot currents and savage storms of his life, both interior and exterior, culminating in an attempt to catch up to the harsh polarities of the 2008 election season in Denver. Always intended as words to be performed, beat style, this is McDaniel's nod to the greats of the Beat Generation with a message of hope, despite the times.
