Publisher's Synopsis
Magazine. Poetry. Fiction. Literary Nonfiction. Art. BOMBAY GIN is the literary journal of the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at Naropa University, co-founded by Allen Ginsberg and Anne Waldman. Emerging from the "outrider" lineage, which operates outside the cultural mainstream, BOMBAY GIN publishes poetry, prose, and hybrid texts as well as art, translations, interviews, and book reviews. Each issue includes a lecture transcribed from the Naropa Audio Archives, comprised of six thousand hours of tapes documenting classes, performances, workshops, and lectures conducted at Naropa since 1974 by many of the leading figures of the literary avant-garde. BOMBAY GIN 36:2 features cover art by Fran Herndon, a special portfolio on Twenty Years of Eco-Lit at Naropa, and work by Jack Collom, Bobbie Louise Hawkins, Bhanu Kapil, Joanne Kyger, Hoa Nguyen, Elizabeth Robinson, Andrew Schelling, Eleni Sikelianos, and Dominque Aurilla Vargas.
