Confronting its culture of drugs, sex and bohemianism, she felt like Alice down the rabbit hole, without recognizable signposts or directions. But it was also at Bennington that she discovered a great love of poetry, which carried her to New York City at a time when a new generation of poets was emerging and shaking up the establishment.. . . [This] is her memoir of that time and place - of her friendships and encounters with writers ... New York City ... nightspots ... taxicabs ... rooftops ... railroad apartments ...and of her own development as a poet ... and more...""
