Kerouac's Beat Generation
"It has been said that the late Jack Kerouac "woke up famous" in 1957 on the morning the New York Times published a glowing review of his landmark novel On the Road, and you can't blame him for trying to capitalize on the enormous public curiosity about this new Bohemia. That year he also wrote Beat Generation (Thunder?s Mouth Press), a three-act play; it was never produced and sat undiscovered in his agent's files until 2004."
