In 1956, after the American rebel poet Irwin Allen Ginsberg's work "Howl" was published in the "City Lights" bookstore, the content was too wide and attracted the attention of the court at that time. The publishing house was accused of disseminating obscene literary works for publishing its poems. The state lawyers and the defendants' lawyers had a heated debate, and both sides called a large number of witnesses and experts.
At this time, Irwin Allen Ginsberg called out the spirit of the "Beat Generation" at the party like a saxophone: freedom of speech, freedom of love and sex, equal life and freedom of thinking for all. Friends and partners who are suing, communicating and inspiring, expect nothing more than this, but his object is not the opposite sex. He and Peter had a relationship that lasted for 40 years until their deaths, and the radical young people leaned against each other on the bench and smiled.
At the end of the trial, the conservative judge read out a surprising and passionate judgement
