Strand Notes
"A humane, precise account of the extraordinary ravages of alchohol delirium on Kerouac...who had strength to complete his poetic narrative...Here we meet San Francisco poets & recognize hero Dean Moriarty ten years after On The Road."- Allen Ginsberg.
Description
A poignant masterpiece of wrenching personal expression from the author of On the Road and The Dharma Bums
In this 1962 novel, Kerouac's alter ego Jack Duluoz, overwhelmed by success and excess, gravitates back and forth between wild binges in San Francisco and an isolated cabin on the California coast where he attempts to renew his spirit and clear his head of madness and alcohol. Only nature seems to restore him to a sense of balance. In the words of Allen Ginsberg, Big Sur "reveals consciousness in all its syntactic elaboration, detailing the luminous emptiness of his own paranoiac confusion."
