Book Reviews of Desolate Angel: Jack Kerouac, the Beat Generation, and America
Book Review: Amazing bio
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this after having seen Kerouac's original manuscript scroll on display at the Denver Public Library. This book is fascinating! It reads so smoothly and gives you just about all the info you could possibly ever want to know about Kerouac and his 'beat' cronies.
