Representaion Toward Books Satori In Paris (Duluoz Legend)

Although he was born and raised in Massachusetts, Jack Kerouac's family was French-Canadian, a fact of which he was proud. Published in 1967, when Kerouac was at the height of his fame, this book tells the story of a ten-day visit to Paris and Brittany in search of his ancestors. On this hectic odyssey, fascinated by everything and everyone he met, from a faded French beauty in a Montparnasse gangster bar to one of his strange, foppish Breton namesakes, Kerouac experienced a feeling of transcendence, a Satori, which was to the Beat generation the culmination of all experience.

Evaluation Appertaining To Books Satori In Paris (Duluoz Legend)

Late Kerouac, not anywhere near as good as On the Road, Dharma Bums etc but still of enough interest over 100 pages. Lots of drinking but not much satori.

An unintentional record of the artist in decline.

The title should be "Alcohol in Paris", as Kerouac most certainly talks more about his drinks rather than "a moment of enlightment". Kerouac at his usual, messing around, drinking, travelling from place to place like a madman.

He Went to France and Saw Lady's Underpants (But Lost His Luggage)Jack Kerouac starring in On the Road In Paris, a short novel/memoir hybrid that was originally published in three installments in Evergreen Review. Early on, Kerouac lays down the ground rules of both this late-in-life (how was he to know?) assignment and his overall body of work, stating that it is a "tale that's told for no other reason but companionship, which is another (and my favorite) definition of literature...in other



I was never a fan of 'On The Road', and have found other works of his to be a mixed bag. This though is one of my favourites, but not simply down to the fact it's Paris. He was a bit older here, in his forties, and shows a more mature side in his writing. It's still witty and amusing and alcohol is always in full flow, as he moves around Paris attempting to piece together some family history. He mingles with the locals rather unsuccessfully (don't know how they would have perceived him), marvels

He gets it.
