The Beat Boys

Ace Bks H262 1959

America’s Teen-Age Jungle And A Searing Story Of Youth In Search Of ‘Kicks’

From the back:

Against a background of fast-drinking, drug addiction, wild jazz and all-night parties, the young people of today who make up the Beat Generation carry on their desperate search for a meaning to their lives—a search for identity, experience and love. The Beats may be found pursuing their restless quest in every big American city. Here is the world of the Beat Generation—a world of dingy back-stairs, be-bop joints, night-long wanderings, meetings on street corners, hitch-hiking, and ‘hip’ bars.

The Story Of A Spoiled Daughter And Two Men!

From the back:

She Played With Fire…
Teasing the boys—tossing out the bait and letting them dangle was Georgia’s idea of fun—driving men crazy was her way of life…
But the Fates have a way of dealing with such a woman… They send her a man who will beat her at her own game… a man who will laugh in her face when she pleads for his kisses… a man who will teach her the meaning of burning desire and not give her its fulfillment… a man who will teach her what happens to girls who play with the fires of love…
