Got to say I'm disappointed with the Daily Telegraph piece on Carolyn Cassady, which has resulted from my call two weeks ago ( http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/9596613/Carolyn-Cassady-tells-her-story-of-Jack-Kerouac-On-The-Road-and-the-Beat-Generation.html)
What I was hoping for - pehaps naively - was a piece that shouted HELP!!! in large font, and maybe printed a picture of her as she is today: 89, frail, tiny and totally alone, her son John having been bounced at Heathrow by over-zealous Immigration Officers (or whatever they call them now).
Still, I guess that for the moment this will have to do. I shall try talking to her Member of Parliament, whose contact details have been passed on to me.
I have more news, but will leave that until tomorrow. Busy right now remembering my days a a 14-year-old schoolboy in a steam laundry....
