Seller's Description:
Very good. Tight, square, uncreased spine. Clean, unmarked interior. Only very light shelf-wear. A charming UK edition of one of Kerouac's heftier novels (clocking in at 366 pages), featuring an uncredited cover depicting an Elton John esque cherub wielding Old Glory and fountain pen. In Seymour Krim's intro, we first see an argument for the stream-of-consciousness innovator's canonization, and Kerouac's pseudonymous documentation of the nascent Beat era in this book is a delight: Allen Ginsberg is thinly disguised as Irwin Garden, author of 'Howling', and William S. Burroughs takes on the persona of Bull Hubbard, whose most notable work is Nude Breakfast. 366 pp. Mass-Market Paperbacks.

Seller's Description:
Good. Worn cover, edgewear. The classic retelling of Kerouac's last big road trip. Kerouac's candid and definitive insider's record of the key figures and events surrounding the Beat Generation, 'Desolation Angels' had gained a reputation as an underground classic long before publication in 1964. Told through the character of Kerouac's fictional alter ego, Jack Duluoz, the novel follows the story of his last legendary road trip, accompanied by his thinly-disguised Beat counterparts, Allen Ginsberg, Gregory Corso and William Burroughs. From California to Mexico and on to opium-ridden Tangiers, Kerouac chronicles the frenetic parties, the drink and the drugs, the poetry and the mountain vigils with unsurpassable energy.
