Sinopsis
In his first novel, The Town and the City , Kerouac draws on his experience in a New England quiet mill-working town to create the very standard American world of George and Marguerite Martin and their children. More accessible than Kerouac's later, more free-form verse, this novel follows in detail the life and growth of three of the Martin brothers as they move up and out of their home and into broader America. "When the railroad trains moaned, and river-winds blew, bringing echoes through the vale, it was as if a wild hum of voices, the dear voices of everybody he had known, were crying: "Peter, Peter! Where are you going, Peter?" And a big soft gust of rain came down. He put up the collar of his jacket, and bowed his head, and hurried along."
