Subterraneans

The Subterraneans haunt the bars and clubs of San Francisco, surviving on a diet of booze and benzedrine, Proust and Verlaine. Living amongst them is Leo, an aspiring writer, and Mardou, half-Indian, half-Negro, beautiful and neurotic. Their bitter-sweet and ill-starred love affair sees Kerouac at his most evocative.

Subterraneans bantuie barurile si cluburile din San Francisco, supravietuind cu o dieta de bautura si benzedrin, Proust si Verlaine. Printre ei traiesc Leo, un scriitor aspirant, si Mardou, jumatate indian, jumatate negro, frumos si nevrotic.
