review of Lawrence Ferlinghettis A Coney Island of the Mind by tENTATIVELY, a cONVENIENCE - November 12, 2011 Rereading A Coney Island of the Mind for what might be the 1st time in 41 yrs felt like going home again - by wch I mean that it feels like something that Im very familiar w/ - even though Im not. Theres always the possibility that when one reads something in ones formative yrs that it becomes deeply instantiated. Rereading this felt strangely comfortable - like being w/ an old friend that I can trust. Ferlinghetti was probably the 1st rebel poet I ever read. When I did so, in the early 1970s, his literateness & anti-war attitudes jived w/ my own. These days. I often feel like I live in an all-too-illiterate society (hence my enthusiasm for Goodreads counterbalance) & reading a bk at all, esp 1 that references many other writers & artists, is ultimately what probably makes me feel like Im in the company of friends - even though I only know most or all of these people thru their works. Goya (p9) & Morris Graves (25) & Dante (28) & Chagall (29) & Kafka (31) & Hemingway & Proust & T.S.Eliot (44) & Djuna Barnes (45), etc, etc, grace these pages as characters. What a cast! Ferlinghetti is, of course, the cofounder of City Lights bks & a publisher - as well as a writer in many forms. I can relate: Im the cofounder of Normals Books & a publisher & a writer in many forms. I reckon that if I ever have the opportunity to meet him (hes still alive at 92 as I write this) he wdnt have any problem recognizing many of the creative people that I frequently mention & wd probably stump me from time-to-time w/ his own extensive knowledge. If only this were the case more often! A Coney Island of the Mind was originally published in 1958 & some of the poetry in it dates back to his 1st bk from 1955: Pictures of the Gone World. It astounds me somewhat how much I can relate to the attitude of this bk. He refers to anarchy in a completely friendly positive way w/o bothering to even acknowledge the substantial suppression of it in the USA of the time. Take this sentence from Autobiography: I have seen Egyptian pilots in purple clouds shopkeepers rolling up their blinds at midday potato salad and dandelions at anarchist picnics. It amused me, & seemed precocious, to read the phrase drugged store cowboys on p13 - knowing that a movie wd be similarly named decades later. On p48 he mentions that the poems Junkmans Obbligato & Autobiography had been read by him w/ The Cellar Jazz Quintet & released on record. This recording is also on 2 different CDs - one w/ Kenneth Rexroth & one w/ Kenneth Patchen. Therere probably people who wd find poetry read along w/ jazz to be a sad cliché of a bygone age - for me, these recordings are utterly wonderful. & reading these poems again I hear Ferlinghettis readings in memory. I rarely, or never, hear my poet friends mention Ferlinghetti. Is it b/c hes so much a part of the culture that theres no need? After all, A Coney Island of the Mind is sd tove sold over a million copies - &, given that its an easy read, most of those copies have probably been read. I wonder if its more b/c he doesnt self-identify w/ the Beats - the literary superstars of the 20th century? According to his Wikipedia entry: Although in style and theme Ferlinghetti’s own writing is very unlike that of the original NY Beat circle, he had important associations with the Beat writers, who made City Lights Bookstore their headquarters when they were in San Francisco. He has often claimed that he was not a Beat, but a bohemian of an earlier generation. I dont really find his writing to be very unlike that of the original NY Beat circle at all & find that to be a somewhat surprising statement. The poetry, at least, seems akin to Ginsbergs. Then again, its often unclear to me who the Beats were - aside from the core circle of friends most often referenced: Burroughs, Ginsberg, Corso, McClure, Kerouac.. Many people seem to be sometimes associated w/ the Beats & sometimes not. If Ferlinghettis not a Beat is he a progenitor (well, no, hes a few yrs too late for that)? His I am Waiting (from no later than 1958) is a list poem of sorts that predates Anne Waldmans more famous Fast Talking Woman by 16 yrs or so. City Lights published that too. Now Waldmans one of those folks ambiguously associated w/ the Beats (shes the coeditor of the Beats at Naropa bk) although Im told she associates herself more w/ a New York school thats not Beat. Heres a small section from I am Waiting that seems like a good place to end this review: and I am waiting for the war to be fought which will make the world safe for anarchy
