Allen Ginsberg se stal objektem celoamerického zájmu v roce 1956, kdy se u soudu v San Francisku projednával obsah jeho „obscénní" básně „Kvílení". Ginsbergova silná představivost, politická agitace a charisma z něj udělaly symbol kulturní transformace posledních padesáti let. Kniha J. Kramerové je pronikavým a vášnivým portrétem Ginsbergova světa a lidí v něm žijících, který se přelévá napříč Amerikou od San Franciska ke školám Středozápadu, od newyorské East Village ke kalifornskému stylu „být u toho".
