Summary

Beat generation - L'anthologie musicale 1936-1962
Hep cats, hipsters & beatniks 1936-1962] - Roger Steffens.

This literary movement built itself around underground jazz culture, which expressed liberation of body and soul. Inspired by jazzmen and hep cats, the Beat Generation hipsters rejected traditional values, embraced African-American musics, travelling, drugs, a free sex lifestyle as well as spirituality.

In partnership with the Centre Pompidou on the occasion of the "Beat Generation" exhibition in Paris, the story of the Beat Generation is told by Bruno Blum in a 32-page booklet. P
