    great work
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2013*

these poems are overall much more concrete than say Reality Sandwiches or some of Howl. Not a bad thing though, the verses read like rhythmic prose almost. overall very beautiful work

    Ginsberg's peakskill
  

*by N***O on Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2004*

Allen Ginsberg peaks with this volume of wonderful, meditative poetry.  Although many would claim he hit his prime early, circa Howl, The Fall of America, though not as stylistically dynamic as Howl or Kaddish, is more meditative, maturely political, and tender.  Many of the poems in this volume are diaphonous reflections on Ginsberg's American travels, presumably without Kerouac(don't get too excited, hipsters).  His poetic stylings seem to be dream woven, with a touch of substance induced mania and distinctly Ginsbergian patriotism thrown in for good measure.  The themes of his poems range widely from a picnic with Einstein at Princeton to a shadowy image of Richard Nixon peering eerily into the righteous protest of a diverse group of anti-Vietnam activists, Ginsberg, of course, included.  Whereas Howl and Kaddish are more anthology worthy poems, in contrast to most of the poems in this volume, The Fall of America is a richly spirited glimpse of America from a modern Whitman, a true American, Allen Ginsberg.  Aum.  Aum.  Aum.  shanti shanti shanti...
