Reviews
"Long ago a 'commonplace book' was a widely known and useful tool for preserving pithy statements and nuggets of wisdom. In the last century, this type of book virtually disappeared. However, Robert Inchausti has single-handedly revived the form with his new book Hard to Be a Saint in the City. The collection vibrates with quotations by and about the writers of the Beat Generation and reveals their basic (and often overlooked) spiritual quests. You can read it from cover to cover or dip into it anywhere and you won't go away disappointed." --Bill Morgan, author of The Beat Atlas and The Beats Abroad: A Global Guide to the Beat Generation "A marvelous book. What better way to present the wild wisdom and beatitude of the Beats than by letting them speak for themselves in their own untamed voices? Here, Inchausti orchestrates those voices into a slowly unfolding revelation that feels symphonic in its scope and complexity." --David Hinton, author of Hunger Mountain and The Wilds of Poetry

Synopsis
An exploration of Beat spirituality--seen through excerpts from the writings of the seminal writers of Beat Generation themselves. It's been said that Jack Kerouac made it cool to be a thinking person seeking a spiritual experience. And there is no doubt that the writers he knew and inspired--iconic figures like Allen Ginsberg, William S. Burroughs, Gary Snyder, and Michael McClure--were thinkers seeking exactly that. In this re-claiming of their vision, Robert Inchausti explores the Beat canon to reveal that the movement was at heart a spiritual one. It goes deeper than the Buddhism with which many of the key figures became identified. It's about their shared perception of an existence in which the Divine reveals itself in the ordinary. Theirs is a spirituality where real life triumphs over airy ideals and personal authenticity becomes both the content and the vehicle for a kind of refurbished American Transcendentalism., An exploration of Beat spirituality--seen through excerpts from the writings of the seminal writers of Beat Generation themselves.
