Abstract
This essay examines the work of Allen Ginsberg and William Burroughs composed during their time in Paris in the late 1950s and early 1960s. It traces the ways in which Ginsberg and Burroughs produced a distinctive haunted spacetime in their work, through their engagement both with the legacy of the European interwar avant-garde and with the geopolitical regime of US imperialism in the early Cold War.
