"Howl" by Allen Ginsberg is widely recognized as one of the most significant poems of the Beat Generation. It is also considered a prominent example of postmodern poetry due to its innovative use of language, structure, and themes. This paper examines "Howl" as a postmodern work of poetry, analyzing how it challenges traditional literary forms and conventions, questions authority and established norms, and employs a fragmented, non-linear style to reflect the fragmented nature of modern society. Through a close reading of the poem and an exploration of its historical and cultural context, this paper offers a comprehensive analysis of "Howl" as a ground breaking work of postmodern literature examining its themes, structure, and style, and considering its place in the broader context of American literature and culture.
