Ira Yeager, the last Beatnik

Ira Yeager, the last Beatnik
13/06/16Wine travels

Today we met the painter Ira Yeager, we had dinner and he welcomed me and Chiara to his place in Sea Ranch.

He is one of the last beatnik on earth, we cooked dinner, drank wine and I basically sat there listening in awe for the entire evening.

This is him telling us about his correspondence with Paul Bowles and his pals Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg among the others. When you leave home for a while magical things happen.
