This is a good compilation of Beat Generation quotations on various writings. I wish that it had included some editorial content as well.

Such a fantastic, fascinating book! It explores, through the words of Beat Generation icons and scholars, what "Beat" is, how Kerouac's no-holds-barred "Bop Spontaneous Prose" came to be, how Buddhism and jazz influenced not just the Beats' work but their way of life, and more. Reading the words of the various players, Kerouac's stood out by a mile - it reminded my why, to me, he will always be the G.O.A.T.
