by David Sterritt (Author)
This text explores the Beat Generation, its intersections with film, and interactions with society and 1950s culture. It balances the rebellion through creativity and behaviour against the values of conformity, conservatism, worry over cold-war hostilities, and the ""rat race"" to material success.
