When MEMORY BABE first appeared from Grove Press in 1983, LIBRARY JOURNAL wrote: "To call this book the definitive Kerouac biography is an understatement ... [it is] all-inclusive and richly detailed. The reader's immersion in Kerouac's thoughts, moves, and mess-ups is so total that one cannot but feel a great empathy for him ...." USA TODAY wrote: "MEMORY BABE is the most relentlessly and thoroughly researched of the Kerouac biographies ... There is a day-to-day tracing of Kerouac's thoughts and movements astonishing in its exactitude." In the new, revised and updated version, Gerald Nicosia builds on his landmark text, using a wide range of sources that have only become available in the past quarter century, since the book was last published by University of California Press in 1994. The new edition contains hundreds of changes from the last edition. Some of these are merely corrections, a name or date changed, but there are also extensive new passages based on material that has come to light since 1994. As just some examples, the book contains new material on Kerouac's ancestry; on his relationship with his mother and his last wife Stella Sampas; on some of his dark sides, such as his anti-Semitism; on the ways Kerouac was influenced by Neal Cassady's infamous "Joan Anderson Letter"; on what Kerouac wished for and saw as his legacy; and on the details of his death. Nicosia also tries to define more precisely Kerouac's role in pioneering the postmodern novel. MEMORY BABE is still the only critical biography of Kerouac--still the only book that examines in detail his literary output and attempts to analyze just what his literary innovations and achievements were. This new, revised and updated version is an even more accurate and comprehensive look at the Father of the Beat Generation, his life, his oeuvre, and his legacy.

Download The Unknown Kerouac Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In On the Road and other iconic works, Jack Kerouac created a quintessentially American voice and a revolutionary prose style. This remarkable gathering of previously unpublished writings reveals as never before the extraordinary literary journey that led to his phenomenal success—a journey with deep roots in the language and culture of Kerouac’s French Canadian childhood. Edited and published with unprecedented access to the Kerouac archives, The Unknown Kerouac presents two lost novels, The Night Is My Woman and Old Bull in the Bowery, which Kerouac wrote in French during the especially fruitful years of 1951 and 1952. Discovered among his papers in the mid-nineties, they have been translated into English for the first time by Jean-Christophe Cloutier, who incorporates Kerouac’s own partial translations. Also included are two journals from the heart of this same crucial period. In Private Philologies, Riddles, and a Ten-Day Writing Log, Kerouac recounts a brief stay in Denver—where he works on an early version of On the Road, reads dime novels, and even rides in a rodeo—and shows him contemplating writers like Chaucer and Joyce and playing with riddles and etymologies. Journal 1951, begun during a stay in a Bronx VA hospital, charts, in ecstatic, moving, and self-revealing pages, the wave of insights and breakthroughs that led Kerouac to the most singular transformation of American prose style since Hemingway. This landmark volume is rounded out with the memoir Memory Babe, a poignant evocation of childhood play and reverie in a robust immigrant community, in which Kerouac uncannily retrieves and distills the subtlest sense impressions. And finally, in an interview with his longtime friend and fellow Beat John Clellon Holmes and in the late fragment Beat Spotlight Kerouac reflects on his meteoric career and unlooked for celebrity.
