Satori in Paris & Pic: Two Novels

by Jack Kerouac

Satori in Paris & Pic: Two Novels Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Satori in Paris and Pic, two of Jack Kerouac's last novels, showcase the remarkable range and versatility of his mature talent. Satori in Paris is a rollicking autobiographical account of Kerouac's search for his heritage in France, and lands the author in his familiar milieu of seedy bars and all-night conversations. Pic is Kerouac's final novel and one of his most unusual. Narrated by ten-year-old Pictorial Review Jackson in a North Carolina vernacular, the novel charts the adventures of Pic and his brother Slim as they travel from the rural South to Harlem in the 1940s.

Review:

"Jazzy, impressionistic prose." The New Yorker

Review:

"Jack Kerouac, new Buddha of American prose, who spit forth intelligence...creating a spontaneous bop prosody and original classic literature." Allen Ginsberg

Review:

"Kerouac's peculiar genius infects every page." The New York TImes
