Baby Driver is almost here! The first of Jan Kerouac's autobiographical novels was originally published in 1981, and now, a new edition for the 21st Century reader, the inaugural title of Outsider Classics. As a book person, you're probably familiar with Jan's famous father, which is why it's remarkable that, despite leading a life just as - if not exceedingly more so - nomadic and freewheeling as his, Jan is an enigmatic literary figure, and her work goes unrecognised among many. Baby Driver is a chronicle of her young life told in elliptical, confessional anecdotes, as she weaves a strong-willed character out of hardship, poverty, heartbreak, substances, loss, and so much more. You may not have heard of Jan Kerouac before Baby Driver, but her story is one you'll never forget. Baby Driver is out on the 23rd October! #outsiderclassics
