Reality Sandwiches Hosokawa Morihiro Formal diversity: You’ll encounter traditionalReality Sandwiches is one of the central poetry collections of the Beat Generation. It gathers poems written between 19531960, during Ginsbergs most creative period after Howl. The poems mix: travel writing, dreams and spiritual exploration, sexuality and identity, counterculture politics, Buddhist and mystical influences. The title comes from a line referencing everyday life as something raw and immediate reality sandwiches.
