Both were neophyte novelists, hungry for literary fame but just as hungry to find a new way of responding to their experiences in a postwar American society that for them had lost its direction. Late one night as they sat talking, Kerouac spontaneously created the term 'Beat Generation' to describe this new attitude they felt stirring around them. This book is the chronicle of this cornerstone friendship and Holmes's life. 606 $aAuthors, American$y20th century$vBiography 606 $aBeats (Persons) 615 0$aAuthors, American 615 0$aBeats (Persons) 676 $a813/.54 676 $aB 700 $aCharters$b Ann$f1936-$01831414 701 $aCharters$b Samuel$f1929-$0928781 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973218803321 996 $aBrother-souls$94403734 997 $aUNINA
