By the fifties, a literary movement had been defined, bought and sold: the Beat Generation.
Jack Kerouac 's On the Road,
Allen Ginsberg 's Howl and William Burroughs ' The Naked Lunch and their spirit of political, chemical and sexual freedom sent shockwaves through a staid America. To what extent was this assorted group of visionary writers a movement? Writer and beat collector lain Sinclair takes a trip across America meeting beat survivors like Ginsberg, Burroughs, Gregory Corso and Lawrence Ferlinghetti , and asks whether their rebellion has now been engulfed by the establishment.
