Anmerkungen
One of the foremost magazines of the Beat Generation with contributions by Jack Kerouac, Norman Mailer, John Updike, André Breton, Allen Ginsberg, Edw. Dahlberg a.o. The first issue was edited by Irving Rosenthal as an alternative to the Winter 1959 issue of 'Chicago Review' which refused the contributions by William S. Burroughs or Jack Kerouac. Big Table No.1 was itself subject to prosecution by the Post Office because of Burroughs and Kerouacs' contributions. The first issue contains 10 episodes of Burroughs' Naked Lunch thus its first printing in any form. Clay and Phillips, p.265.
