  • One person's insight to Kerouac's personal life

    I read this book with a keen interest due the particular insight of a possible unexplored aspect of Kerouac's personal life. The book was a decent read and I was pretty much glued to the text for about 5 days.

The amount of sex scenes in this book on ...
