Hardback. Zustand: Fair. The legendary 1951 scroll draft of On the Road, published as Kerouac originally composed it The sparse and unassuming scroll is the living version of On the Road] for our time. . . . It is a dazzling piece of writing.--The New York Times Book Review During three weeks in 1951, Jack Kerouac wrote the first draft of On the Road--typed as a long, single-spaced paragraph on eight sheets of tracing paper, which he taped together to form a scroll. Representing the identifiable point at which his vision and narrative voice first came together in a sustained burst of creative energy, the scroll is the uncut version of Kerouac's masterpiece--rougher, wilder, and more sexually explicit than the edited work that appeared in 1957. On the Road: The Original Scroll is Kerouac's signature achievement--and one of the most significant, celebrated, and provocative documents in American literary history.
