Jim Jones debunks many of the myths surrounding the life and times of Jack Kerouac. Jones concentrates on those whose lives were most affected by Kerouac: daughter Jan Kerouac, wives Edie Parker, Joan Haverty, and Stella Sampac, as well as nephew Paul Blake Jr. The book takes its title from advice given to Jan during her second and final meeting with Jack, who encouraged her to profit from the surname she shared with the famous author of On the Road. Sadly, not one of these individuals so closely tied to Kerouac seems to have benefited from the connection. Jan discusses her 15 months as a prostitute, her own divorces, her hospitalization, and her life as an author. Although Kerouac is one of the most "biographied" American writers of our time, Jones offers a new perspective, in which formerly marginalized figures in the Kerouac story--particularly women--become strong, central characters.--From publisher description.
