Just read Diane di Prima's raunchy Memoirs of a Beatnik, first published in 1969.
I have no idea why I haven't picked this up until now, but I'm glad I didn't. It might have damaged my innocent mind.
There's a lot of great writing in it and even better sex.
The final chapter is a bit of a disclaimer, but getting there is worthwhile. Reminds me of the methodology Miller and Nin used in a previous era.
Highly recommended.
