Allen Ginsberg’s Annotations to Tom Clark’s “The Great Naropa Poetry Wars,” March 1980

Published in the Uncategorized

One of my last projects as Allen Ginsberg’s apprentice was secretarying his attempt to correct errors in Tom Clark’s attack on Naropa Institute in 1980. We ran out of time and his literary executor and I cannot find an instance of it being published in any form. These are the first eleven pages. Here’s a link to the document as pdfs.
