The Haunted Life is the coming-of-age story of Peter Martin, a college track
star determined to idle away what he knows will be one of his last innocent
summers in his tranquil New England home town. But with the war escalating in
Europe and his two closest friends both plotting their escapes, he realises how
sheltered his upbringing has been. As he surveys the competing influences of his
youth, he struggles to determine what might lead to an intellectually authentic
life.
The Haunted Life is ultimately a meditation on intellectual truth, male
friendship and the desire for movement - all themes that would dominate
Kerouac's later work.
