Reviews
"Reveals the boldness and originality of Kerouac's artistic vision." — The Boston Globe "It remains clear from his later letters that Kerouac understood what he was doing as a writer. He consistently explains his aesthetic, his plan to create the Duluoz Legend of books, and the essentially benign charity of his vision." — San Francisco Chronicle "Rambunctious and energetic . . . the letters convey the genius of that special American type—the perpetual motion man." — The Washington Post "Kerouac's letters and early stories supplement his legend, providing a fuller portrait of a true American original." — The Boston Globe, "Reveals the boldness and originality of Kerouac's artistic vision." -- The Boston Globe "It remains clear from his later letters that Kerouac understood what he was doing as a writer.

- e***l (877)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaBook is in excellent condition. It did arrive a week and a half later than it was originally supposed to. I reached out to the seller which took a bit of time to receive a response. The book was a good value and it did ship in a bubble envelope which always helps with protecting the books from postal handling/damage.

I wasn't a huge fan of the packaging though, as it was just wrapped in a simple thin plastic sleeve with zero cushion or padding and I've had books completely destroyed because there was nothing to protect them so if possible I'd like to see the seller provide a safer package when shipping books. But thankfully mine wasn't damaged in transit!STATION HILL BLANCHOT READER, Blanchot, Maurice, 9781886449176 (#197410139171)

By the time it arrived, there were holes and able to see the book inside. Luckily it did not rain, otherwise it would have been ruined.
