À propos de cet audio

A brand new volume of previously unpublished writings from the archives reflecting Jack Kerouac’s Buddhist thinking

From a young age Kerouac was a spiritual thinker and questioner, and he always considered himself a spiritual writer. Buddhism gave more meaning to Jack’s work as a writer: he was working not for personal accomplishment and glory but for human betterment. And Buddhism justified his lifestyle: with its vision of the material world as empty and illusory, he was free to do what he wanted.

This collection shows Jack at his earnest, soulful best. The writing is consistently and wonderfully Kerouacian: it is honest, reflective, heartfelt, and revealing, with great characterizations amid his self-exploration as he wrestles with his consciousness, desperate for belief.

Excellent collection of Kerouac writings that show just how much he was inspired by the Buddhist world view. The narration was particularly engaging for this title.

great perspective and listen
