Jack Kerouac (1922 - 1969) was an American novelist, poet, artist
and part of the Beat Generation. Most of his life was spent in the
vast landscapes of America or living with his mother, with whom he
spent most of his life. Kerouac's best known works are On the Road
and The Dharma Bums.
Ann Charters, professor of English at the University of
Connecticut, has been interested in Beat writers since 1956, when
as an undergraduate English major she attended the repeat
performance of the Six Gallery poetry reading in Berkeley where
Allen Ginsberg gave his sencond public reading of Howl. After his
death she wrote the first Kerouac biography and edited his
posthumous collection, Scattered Poems. She was the general editor
of the two-volume encyclopaedia The Beats- Literary Bohemians In
Postwar America and has published a collection of her photographic
portraits of well-known writers in the book Beats & Company.

of affectations that in the novel can sometimes verge on bathos . .
. It seems much more immediate and contemporary.?
