The Beat Generation Meets The E-Generation

Review of Orpheus Emerged by Jack Kerouac. Perhaps it is appropriate that the previously unpublished work of a novelist who wrote a whole book (On the Road) on a continuous roll of paper in a matter of days should be the basis for the first e-text from a new online publisher of electronic books. The hyperlinked experience of the novella accords well with the hyped-up pace of Kerouac's own literary output and the hyperactivity of his characters. Published in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. February 11, 2001. Click here or on title.
