The book describes the adventures of Kerouac's alter ego, Jack Duluoz, covering the period of his life between 1935 and 1946. The book includes reminiscences of the author's high school experiences in Lowell, Massachusetts, his education at Columbia University, and his subsequent naval service during World War II. It culminates with the beginnings of the beat movement. It was Kerouac's last work published during his life. [Wiki] ***'Football, war and murder - these are the catalytic forces in this stunning new novel by Jack Kerouac which traces the adventures of a young man coming of age in the American 1930s and 40's. ***Unashamedly exploring the vanity that makes a young man seize life by the throat, rich in adventure and nostalgia and written in a direct realistic style that marks a new departure for Jack Kerouac, "Vanity of Duluoz" has all the humour and humanity, the depth of perception and the energy of Kerouac at his best.' [Quotes taken from the front and back flaps of the dustwrapper] ***First impression of the first UK edition of "Vanity of Duluoz", in its original dustwrapper, in nice original condition, albeit with ffep removed. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
