Deliberate Speed: The Origins of a Cultural Style in the American 1950s, with a New Preface 2nd edition
W. T. Lhamon
Examining works by figures as varied as Miles Davis, Ralph Ellison, Robert Frank, Allen Ginsberg, Little Richard, Charlie Parker, Jackson Pollock, Thomas Pynchon, and Ludwig Wittgenstein—Lhamon demonstrates how many of the distinctive elements attributed to the revolutionary period of the 1960s had their roots in the fertile soil of the 1950s.
