Esquire Maagzine, November 1968: Chicago of the Absurd
New York: Esquire, 1968.
Softcover. Very Good Condition. Item #049534
Light wear to wraps, with the rare pasted on announcement. Esquire sent three underground writers and famed war journalist John Sack to Chicago for the DNC (later joined by Allen Ginsburg) resulting in some exciting times.
A “hard-hitting little press team,” Southern wrote, that, later joined by Allen Ginsberg, “had one hell of a time actually getting admitted to the hall, despite proper credentials. Burroughs and I, of course, are veritable paragons of fashion and decorum—but Ginsberg and Genet, it must be admitted, are pretty weird-looking guys.” Genet, always aware of the overlap between force, fascism, and fornication, famously devotes significant time to discussing the policeman's crotches.
