This sixth selection of essays and reviews looks at a whole list of
writers, poets, political activists and others who can be claimed
to be rebels in their various ways. The strange communist Joseph
Pogany or John Pepper, as he was known in America, is here, as is
B. Traven, author of The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, in his
earlier role as Ret Marut, a German revolutionary. There are essays
about communism in Hollywood and about Henry Miller and the writing
of The Tropic of Cancer. Beat novelists, bohemians in Paris and
elsewhere, jazz musicians like Lester Young and Charlie Parker,
surrealism in Prague, and the underground in Amsterdam, all take
their place in this wide-ranging survey.
