Product Description
First published in 1956, Allen Ginsberg’s Howl is a prophetic masterpiece–an epic raging against dehumanizing society that overcame censorship trials and obscenity charges to become one of the most widely read poems of the century.
Now a major motion picture, starring James Franco, Howl was directed by two-time College Award-winners Rob Epstein & Jeffrey Friedman, who hired Eric Drooker to animate the poem. Howl: A Graphic Novel visualizes the poem–stanza by stanza–with animation art Drooker designed for the film.

I was very intrigued by the thought of making a graphic novel of this poem. I still am; but I don’t judge that this artist’s style is a excellent match for this powerful poem.
The art is reasonably reminiscent of recent children’s animation– “Polar Bear Prompt” art and Howl are a very terrible mix. Howl needs art that is explosive, colorful and frenetic. I know that this artist has worked on additional Allen Ginsberg poems- I have never seen them and they could be fantastic. Agreed the choice of reading this version of Howl or the City Lights pamphlet version- I would read the pamphlet in a heartbeat.
