Jack Kerouac - Big Sur

When William S. Burroughs met Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg, it was an event that would stay recorded in the history of literature. Burroughs was an interesting character and a man of substance.

Celebrate the defining text of the beat movement with this unique Jack Kerouac On The Road Design. First published in 1957, On The Road features many key figures in the Beat movement, such as William S. Burroughs (Old Bull Lee), Allen Ginsberg (Carlo Marx) and Neal Cassady (Dean Moriarty) represented by characters in the book, including Kerouac himself as the narrator Sal Paradise.

Kerouac is recognized for his style of spontaneous prose. Thematically, his work covers topics such as his Catholic spirituality, jazz, promiscuity, life in New York, Buddhism, drugs, poverty, and travel. He became an underground celebrity and, with other beats, a progenitor of the hippie movement, although he remained antagonistic toward some of its politically radical elements. He has a lasting legacy, greatly influencing many of the cultural icons of the 1960s, including Bob Dylan, the Beatles, and the Doors.

This is a portrait of young Jean-Louis Lebris de Kérouac, who later becomes famous as Jack Kerouac, the writer of the cult novel On the Road. His favorite themes were rambling, drinking, and all that jazz.
