Joyce Johnson Minor Characters (Picador Books)
Macmillan 0330281496 / 9780330281492 PAPERBACK Good
0330281496 Amazon Review nJohnson considers her personal history within the larger framework of the Beat movement and American society. Memories of a conventional Jewish middle-class upbringing and her revolt against it are interwoven with the early experiences of people she would meet later: Jack Kerouac (her boyfriend in the late 1950s), Allen Ginsberg, and others are evaluated with perceptive authority. Johnson's elegant prose is carefully wrought and thoughtfully measured in a way that Beat literature seldom was. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. n nProduct Description nFor two years, during the time that On the Road established Jack Kerouac as the spokesman and guiding light of the Beat Generation, Joyce Johnson was his girlfriend. This luminous, lyrical book is the story of that time. A loving, tender and moving testament.--People. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
