Unedited version of 'On the Road' to be published
The Lowell Sun

Jack Kerouac's landmark novel on the Beat Generation, On The Road, will be published in its unedited "original scroll version," John Sampas said today.

The Lowell-based executor of Kerouac's literary estate said he signed a contract Sunday with the New York-based publisher Viking/Penguin to publish the book. He hopes to have it out by the end of 2007.

Next year marks the 50th anniversary of the On The Road. Viking Press was also the original publisher of On The Road, in September 1957. The book made Lowell-born Kerouac a literary celebrity. He died at age 47 in St. Petersburg, Fla., in 1969.

I'll certainly be on the road to my local book store to grab, (maybe steal ..in keeping with the spirit of the thing), a copy of this one....
