Story
Before Jack Kerouac expressed the spirit of a generation in his 1957 classic On the Road, he spent years figuring out how he wanted to live and, above all, learning how to write. Atop an Underwood brings together more than sixty previously unpublished works that Kerouac wrote before he was twenty-two, ranging from stories and poems to plays and parts of novels, including an excerpt from his 1943 merchant marine novel, The Sea Is My Brother. These writings reveal what Kerouac was thinking, doing, and dreaming during his formative years and reflect his primary literary influences.

Growth in rhymes, pots and pans reflects their thyme. How is life spent if chaos is a vague establishment. Poems of love are shared too softly. Poems of pain bring tears as memories fade smoothly. Enjoy these moments of peace and the treasure you will realize is at your feet.
