The Voice Is All, Joyce Johnson shows that in fact that voice was saying: Here, this is how I became an American. Drawing on far better access to Kerouac's journals and papers than a biographer has ever had, she peels back the layers of mythology that have encrusted themselves to Kerouac to reveal a man wracked with contradictions, a man who hated and fought these divisions desperately, until he found a sound that could make a haunting American music out of embracing them.
