Remarques
The journal reflects the influence of the Beat Generation in Britain and was important for considering poetry as a performing art. No. 4 is a special issue on jazz and poetry. Contributions by i.a. Samuel Beckett, William Burroughs, Kurt Schwitters, Stefan Themerson, John Cage, Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, Raymond Queneau and Eugene Ionesco. The publication was revived in 1970.
