Lowell Sun Online - Unedited version of ‘On the Road’ to be published
Jack Kerouac’s landmark novel on the Beat Generation, On The Road, will be published in its unedited “original scroll version,” John Sampas said today. The Lowell-based executor of Kerouac’s literary estate said he signed a contract Sunday with the New York-based publisher Viking/Penguin to publish the book. He hopes to have it out by the end of 2007. Tuesday’s Lowell Sun will have the full edited story.
