Description
Maggie Cassidy is an autobiographical novel by Jack Kerouac, published in Penguin Modern Classics. It is one of the most sustained and poetic pieces of his 'spontaneous prose'.
The book tells the story of Duluoz, a high school athlete who falls in love with Maggie Cassidy, a teenager from a New England mill town. This tender adolescent love affair is a poignant portrait of young love and friendship growing up.
