The first installment of Carla Blumenkranz’s profile of legendary book editor Gordon Lish is in the new issue of n+1:

Lish drove into San Francisco on the rolling coastal highways, saw the Bay open up before him just as Kerouac described it, and entered the city, its “long bleak streets with trolley wires all shrouded in fog whiteness.” It was 1959, and he was 26 years old, a grown man compared to his young hero Moriarty, and past the supposed age of adventure; his wife and young daughter were traveling with him. He was late to the party, too: Kerouac had moved to Orlando and the Beat scene was dissipating.

    The criminal background check is to weed out all those who have a potential for drug related crimes and those who have had drug related crimes. It can be very tempting for those who have had a drug history to revert back to that condition when surrounded by drugs all of the time. It is also very tempting for those with current felonies to revert back to a criminal lifestyle when surrounded by drugs and money.
