DICK: A MEMOIR OF DICK GALLUP
by Ron Padgett

One of America’s finest poets also turns out to be one of our premier memoirists. With his remarkably engaging trio of portraits, Ted, Joe and now perhaps his best, Dick, Padgett provides a master class about how to convey the complexities of friendship. Insightful, humorous, anecdotally rich and ruefully honest, its sense of fair play, without pulling any punches, is astonishing and enviable.
— Phillip Lopate

I read Dick with rapt fascination. It leaves me tongue-tied with respect.
— Peter Schjeldahl

Neal Cassady with his girlfriend at the time, Anne Murphy, on a trip to Bolinas with Charlie Plymell and Allen, Fall 1963. “When we stopped at a convenience store, I asked Allen to borrow his camera to take this shot as if nothing had happened and we went for a roller coaster ride. Neal was all smiles and otherwise had a nice time lying on the hills overlooking the shore at Bolinas. Allen was still in his Whitmanesque/India mode then.” (Photo & Caption: Charles Plymell)

Anne Murphy, also known as Anne Marie Maxwell, whose book Tripping With a Viper came out last march, passed away on October 21st. She’d remained a family friend of the Cassadys, and was in Jamie Cassady’s care till the very end.
