The legendary 1951 scroll draft of On the Road, published as Kerouac originally composed itThe sparse and unassuming scroll is the living version [of On the Road] for our time. . . . It is a dazzling piece of writing.The New York Times Book ReviewDuring three weeks in 1951, Jack Kerouac wrote the first draft of On the Roadtyped as a long, singlespaced paragraph on eight sheets of tracing paper, which he taped together to form a scroll. Representing the identifiable point at which his vision and narrative voice first came together in a sustained burst of creative energy, the scroll is the uncut version of Kerouacs masterpiecerougher, wilder, and more sexually explicit than the edited work that appeared in 1957. On the Road: The Original Scroll is Kerouacs signature achievementand one of the most significant, celebrated, and provocative documents in American literary history.Penguin Classics is the leading publisher of classic literature in the Englishspeaking world, representing a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.
