Superbly crafted review Simon, and tremendously informative. I was particularly taken with the paragraph about Kerouac's dilemma. It's a brilliant piece of writing. Shuttleworth has given us a real gift bringing forward the elements of Kerouac's desolate time, sharing its results and how these are connected. Many thanks.

Thank you, Marc, for your response and positive support. And, yes, Charles Shuttleworth has added a further important volume to the shelves of Kerouac Studies. I should also wish you, perhaps again, a happy New Year. It looks as if you have some interesting life and verse projects in the pipeline. Good luck with all of them and we will speak soon…
