Description

Recently discovered by the estate of Jack Kerouac, Orpheus Emerged chronicles the passions, conflicts, and dreams of a group of bohemians searching for truth while studying at a university. Written shortly after the iconic Beat author met Allen Ginsberg, William Burroughs, Lucien Carr, and others in and around Columbia University, the story showcases the emerging core of the Beat Generation. Orpheus Emerged is a unique portrait of an artist as a young man and shows a writer in the process of finding the voice that would eventually express the spirit of his contemporaries.
