Hear beat historian Gerald Nicosia discuss his latest book inspired by the real life characters from Jack Kerouac’s On The Road on January 31, 2013.
Beat historian Gerald Nicosia spent years looking for Lu Anne Henderson, the woman who started Jack Kerouac and Neal Cassady on their journey, because he knew that if not for her, the two men wouldn’t have taken the road trip that became the classic novel On the Road.
Nicosia discusses his book One and Only which tells the story of the beautiful 15 year old girl who loved both men and taught them how to love each other.
A book sale by Readers Books follows the event.
This event will take place in the Latino/Hispanic Meeting Room A & B of the SF Main Library.
