The truth about On the Road
In his latest book, Gerald Nicosia has unlocked the dynamic of Jack Kerouac and Neal Cassady, and not a moment too soon.

Nicosia, the author of Memory Babe, the definitive Jack Kerouac book, was an advisor to the On The Road movie due to premiere in May at the Cannes Film Festival. On the Road, published in , was, of course, the book that made Kerouac famous. It was inspired by Jack London’s famed book The Road, published in
Nicosia’s new book is One And Only: The Untold Story of On the Road.
Its genesis was on the set of On The Road, when he was hired to teach the actors what beatnik life was all about.
Nicosia had, 30 years before, interviewed Lu Anne Henderson, known as Marylou in On the Road, for Memory Babe.

Kerouac and Cassady had a sometimes homoerotic relationship, but Nicosia says it was Henderson who brought them together and encouraged them to love each other in a way that defined the beat movement.
