Overview

The title of this book is taken from Henry Miller’s “Into the Night Life” and expresses the way Lawrence Ferlinghetti felt about these poems when he wrote them during a short period in the 1950’s – as if they were, taken together, a kind of Coney Island of the mind, a kind of circus of the soul.

  • Lawrence Ferlinghetti (1919-2021) was a poet, painter, and founder of City Lights Booksellers & Publishers. His books include A Coney Island of the Mind and Pictures of the Gone World, among many others.
