This review is from: Guilty of Everything: The Autobiography of Herbert Huncke (Hardcover)
Here's a little something about Guilty of Everything, the autobiography of the legendary Herbert E. Huncke ... . The full manuscript of Guilty of Everthing kicked about for 2 decades. It was once known as his "confessions." Raymond Foye of Hanuman Books published this first installment of Guilty in 1987 with the assistance of co-publisher Francesco Clemente in a small run, a now scarce edition. In 1988 Huncke met young Paragon House editor Don Kennison in New York City who took on the manuscript and into it breathed new life, preparing and shaping it with Mr. Huncke into the 1990 publication by Paragon. This event secured Herbert Huncke's place in the Beat bibliography and brought him steady fame in the last years of his life. Although this remarkable book had a brief success and two hardcover printings, it never made paperback and is now out-of-print. There are slight text variations from the excerpt done by Hanuman, so both editions are absolutely essential for both collector and reader.
