		Now known as Joyce Johnson, she supplements the text of their epistles with commentary whose sensitive, rueful tone will be familiar to readers of her memoir, Minor Characters.
		Joyce Johnson's reminisence of her love affair with Jack Kerouac is a bittersweet tale of her passion for Kerouac, the insecurities involving the relationship, the interaction with many of the beat generation characters, such as Allen Ginsberg, the saga of the Orlovsky brothers, the end of Elise Cowen often mentioned in beatnik reviews.
		Jack Kerouac warned Joyce Johnson, nee Glassman, on the first night they spent together, back in 1957, "I don't like blondes." In spite of their inauspicious beginning, Kerouac kept returning to Glassman over a period of two years, during which time he restlessly wandered the US and Mexico.

	Minor Characters - Joyce Johnson (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Johnson, of course, shows what Kerouac was like, but she also skillfully captures the feel of Greenwich Village and Barnard College.
		Those threads describing the texture of the 1950's are gently interwoven with the great love story as seen from Joyce’s perspective; the short, tragic affair between Joyce’s best college friend, Elise, and Allen Ginsburg is told in parallel.
		Johnson's memoir is a moving chronicle of an adventurous – and ultimately lonely – woman in New York in the 1950’s.

		Joyce Johnson's classic Minor Characters is valued not only for its portrayal of her relationship with Jack Kerouac but also for its stunning evocation of what it meant to grow up female in the 1950s.
		The second section focuses on Johnson's brief but intense relationship with her first husband, the painter James Johnson, whose early death left her a widow at 27.
		Shortly before she leaves him, Johnson thinks, 'How was it that I could be important enough to have my name in Newsweek, while at home I was little more than a housemaid?' Her deceptively simple prose cuts through the past, where 'memories settled on stuff like dust.' Photos.
