Synopsis

Here, in what has become a classic of its kind since its publication in 1978, is the fascinating story of an American literary legend, recorded through the voices of the friends and lovers of Jack Kerouac, "King of the Beats." Authors Barry Gifford and Lawrence Lee retraced Kerouac's life at home and on the road, and talked with the prophets, musicians, poets, socialites, and working people who knew Kerouac. All have contributed to a remarkably vibrant, riveting portrait of a life.
