On the Road Again

Its not incorrect to say that Jack Kerouac wrote "On the Road" in a blistering three weeks in April 1951, on one scroll of paper. Closer to the truth is that Kerouac's scroll turned into "On the Road" after considerable work by editors and Kerouac himself, adding commas and changing names, changing it from a history into literature. In honor of the 50th anniversary of "On the Road," they've finally published the original scroll. Guess what Brian just bought.
