The two Chinese covers are as different as you can get.; August 20, 2007 at 3:39 PM

Not using latin letters? The chinese one (2000) doesn't represent the style of the book very well. Looks like something from Jackie Collins.

I like Kerouac's own suggestion from 1952, much nicer than my copy (Sweden, 1988).; September 9, 2007 at 7:39 AM
