Through his imprint the Grove Press and his magazine The Evergreen Review, publisher Barney Rosset introduced American readers to Pinter, Beckett, Genet and Ionesco, as well as providing a home for the Beat poets and other counterculture icons (including our retrospective subject Shirley Clarke).
This brilliant, sparky documentary chronicles the life and times of a man who has battled hypocrisy at every turn, with contributions from Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Erica Jong, John Waters and Gore Vidal.
