A sequence of one hundred and one poems with recurrent themes, it includes various sections on love, art, music, history, and literature, as well as confrontations with major figures in the avant-garde before the arrival of the Beat generation. This edition now includes eighteen new poems from Ferlinghetti's Pictures of the Gone World which he publishes under his City Lights imprint. A self-styled stand-up tragedian, Ferlinghetti has been called the foremost chronicler of our times. If A Coney Island of the Mind was a generations vibrant eye-opener, A Far Rockaway of the Heart is a wake-up call for a new age.
