The legendary 1951 scroll draft of "On the Road," published word for word as Kerouac originally composed it Though Jack Kerouac began thinking about the novel that was to become "On the Road" as early as 1947, it was not until three weeks in April 1951, in an apartment on West Twentieth Street in Manhattan, that he wrote the first full draft that was satisfactory to him. Typed out as one long, single-spaced paragraph on eight long sheets of tracing paper that he later taped together to form a 120 foot scroll, this document is among the most significant, celebrated, and provocative artifacts in contemporary American literary history. It represents the first full expression of Kerouacas revolutionary aesthetic, "the" identifiable point at which his thematic vision and narrative voice came together in a sustained burst of creative energy. It was also part of a wider vital experimentation in the American literary, musical, and visual arts in the post-World War II period. It was not until more than six years later, and several new drafts, that Viking published, in 1957, the novel known to us today. On the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of "On the Road," Viking will publish the 1951 scroll in a standard book format. The differences between the two versions are principally ones of significant detail and altered emphasis. The scroll is slightly longer and has a heightened linguistic virtuosity and a more sexually frenetic tone. It also uses the real names of Kerouacas friends instead of the fictional names he later invented for them. The transcription of the scroll was done by Howard Cunnell who, along with Joshua Kupetz, George Mouratidis, and Penny Vlagopoulos, provides a critical introduction that explains the fascinating compositional and publication history of "On the Road" and anchors the text in its historical, political, and social context.
文先生的字句之间有着我们未曾经历的那个时代的滥觞,如果他在天堂中的日子还和以往一样的话,那么无疑会每天坐在凯路亚克或者卡萨笛的身边听着他们讲了1000遍的荒唐故事,再然后就是笑着在自己的笔记本上潦草的描画着那些好象就在眼前的灰狗和蔓延到印地安故地的公路以及那些遗散...
评分在冬日破晓的黄雾下, 一群人鱼贯地流过伦敦桥,人数是那么多, 我没想到,死亡竟毁坏了这么多人。--艾略特《荒原》 这个春节,因为众所周知的原因,被关在家里已经大半个月了。通常这是一年里本应最热闹的时候,本应是全体中国人集体“在路上”的日子,无论是回家团聚的,还是...
评分 评分花了一周的时间读完了这本美国的经典著作。开始的时候逐字逐句的阅读,到后面就开始囫囵吞枣,最后草草翻完,一无所获。 我以为是我的阅读能力出了问题,在网上瞄了下,才发现也许是翻译的原因而导致我无法完全理解书中所要传达的真实含义。我读的是王永年版本的,没读过英文...
评分即使时隔多年,我依然记得那个冬夜,我独自坐到图书馆关门,虽然冻得瑟瑟发抖,胸中却有团火在熊熊燃烧,整个下午和晚上,我都在看一本叫《在路上》的小说,当我合上书本的最后一页,从玻璃幕墙望出去,窗外漆黑一片,而我却只想着,一头冲出去,再也不回来。那个寒冷的夜晚,...

评分如果不知道想干什么,就上路上去寻找;如果觉得有些累了,就回家;如果又不知道想要什么,再上路。去哪儿不重要,干什么也不重要,只是让自己看起来可以做些什么了。
