| book description |

A long forgotten Beat poet brought back to life in utterly fantastical fashion. In beautifully vivid journal entries, Black poet Mardou Fox chronicles her 1950s and â€˜60s experiences with the Beat Generation--and her adventures in the mysterious, otherworldly realm â€œover the fence.â€ Characters based on star Beat authors like Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac fight alongside Mardou or battle against her as she challenges racism and sexism to win happiness, freedom, and respect for her work. Are the answers sheâ€™s seeking shrouded in the mists of magic? Inspired by the true story of Alene Lee, whose crucial role is often left out of Beat Generation lore.
