About the book

The Library of America continues its acclaimed Kerouac editions with this remarkable gathering of previously unpublished writings, including two novellas originally written in the French-Canadian dialect joual. This unprecedented collection offers intimate glimpses of the growth of Kerouac's mind and art, revealing him, for the first time, to have been essentially an immigrant writer, one whose extraordinary style emerged as a fusion of his native and adopted languages.
