A comprehensive dream journal published by Jack Kerouac in 1960 that covers all recorded dreams from 1952-1960. In it Kerouac tries to continue plot-lines with characters from his books as he sees them in his dreams. This book is stylistically wild, spontaneous, and flowing, like much of Kerouac's writing, and helps to give insight into the Beat Generation author's mind.
