Howl and Other Poems
''Howl and Other Poems'' is a collection of poetry by Allen Ginsberg published November 1, 1956. It contains Ginsberg's most famous poem, "Howl", which is considered to be one of the principal works of the Beat Generation as well as "A Supermarket in California", "Transcription of Organ Music", "Sunflower Sutra", "America", "In the Baggage Room at Greyhound", and some of his earlier works. For printing the collection, the publisher Lawrence Ferlinghetti, another well-known poet, was arrested and charged with obscenity.〔Morgan, Bill and Joyce Peters. ''Howl on Trial''.(2006) p.xiii〕 On October 3, 1957, Judge Clayton W. Horn found Ferlinghetti not guilty of the obscenity charge, and 5,000 more copies of the text were printed to meet the public demand, which had risen in response to the publicity surrounding the trial.〔 "Howl and Other Poems" contains two of the most well-known poems from the Beat Generation, "Howl" and "A Supermarket in California", which have been reprinted in other collections, including the ''Norton Anthology of American Literature''.
==Publication history==
Lawrence Ferlinghetti offered to publish "Howl" through City Lights soon after hearing Ginsberg perform it at the Six Gallery Reading.〔 Ferlinghetti was so impressed, he sent a note to Ginsberg, referencing Ralph Waldo Emerson's response to ''Leaves of Grass'':"I greet you at the beginning of a great career. When do I get the manuscript?"〔Barry Miles. ''Ginsberg: A Biography''. Virgin Publishing Ltd., 2000. 0753504863. pg. 194〕 Originally, Ginsberg and Ferlinghetti assumed "Howl" would be long enough to take up the entire book,〔Miles, pg. 190.〕 but they later decided to add some similar poems Ginsberg had completed around that time.〔Edited by Matt Theado.
