The University of Birmingham has arranged for the 1951 original typescript manuscript of On the Road – the world-famous scroll of 1951 – to come to the Barber Institute at the University during December 2008 and January 2009
They’re having a two-day conference (11-12 Dec) to celebrate the 50th anniversary of book’s publication in the UK, along with a series of events including a film night on 11 Dec, probably featuring One Fast Move and I’m Gone: Kerouac’s Big Sur.
