    I've only read The Portable Beat Reader, so I won't comment on novels, but I am open to discussing their poetry, short stories and letters (I really enjoyed Neal Cassady's letters).

    I haven't read "Go". But I was a Kerouac-maniac in my youth days: I've read 17 novels of him, almost his entire bibliography (!)

    Has anybody read Orpheus Emerged by Kerouac?

    I haven't, since this novel was discovered and published in 2002, long after I'd stoped reading Kerouac.

    I'm stepping out On the Road. Never read it up till now. Glancing at it, I see poetry in prose.

    When I first read it (I was 18), I had a map of USA next to me and was tracing the heroes' constant moving... It helped me a lot to travel with them!
