Publisher Notes
A novel, discovered by his estate following Kerouac's death in 1969, explores the dreams, conflicts, passions, and activities of a group of bohemian students who search for truth while studying at a university. Reprint.
Media Reviews
"Even accounting for the age of its author [23], this book is an appallingly bad one. It is not poor in the standard manner of books written by young authors who go on to achieve some measure of success, that is, generally uninspired writing but containing the odd flash that signals the artist that is to come....The writing in ORPHEUS EMERGED, rather, contains no hint of Kerouac's signature impressionism that defenestrated the prevailing literary conventions. The novel is strikingly conventional, plagued by the stilted prose typical of budding fiction writers."
