Beschreibung
2019 Reprint of 1962 Edition. Coming down from his carefree youth and unwanted fame, Jack Kerouac undertakes a mature confrontation of some of his most troubling emotional issues: a burgeoning problem with alcoholism, addiction, fear, and insecurity. He dutifully records his ever-changing states of consciousness, which culminate in a powerful religious experience. Big Sur was written sometime after Jack Kerouac's best-known works, following a visit to northern California and the first feelings of midlife crisis. Kerouac stayed for several weeks in a cabin in Big Sur, California, and with friends in San Francisco. Upon returning home, he wrote this account in a two-week period. Critic Richard Meltzer referred to Big Sur as Kerouac's 'masterpiece, and one of the great, great works of the English language."

Über den Autor
Jack Kerouac (1922-1969) was an American novelist and poet, best known for his pivotal role in the Beat Generation, a literary movement that emerged in the 1950s. Born in Lowell, Massachusetts, to French-Canadian parents, Kerouac's writing style was characterized by its spontaneous, free-flowing prose, often described as "stream of consciousness." His most famous work, *On the Road* (1957), captured the restless spirit of post-war America and became a defining novel of the counterculture. Kerouac's exploration of spirituality, jazz, and the search for meaning influenced generations of writers and artists. Despite his literary success, he struggled with personal demons, including alcoholism, and died at the age of 47.
