At The End Of The Road: Jack Kerouac In Mexico,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
We had finally found the magic land at the end of the road and we never dreamed the extent of the magic. Mexico, an escape route, inspiration, and ecstatic terminus of the celebrated novel On the Road, was crucial to Jack Kerouacs creative development. In this dramatic and highly compelling account, Jorge GarcaRobles, leading authority on the Beats in Mexico, recreates both the actual events and the literary imaginings of Kerouac in what became the writers revelatory terrain.Providing Kerouac an immediate spiritual freshness that contrasted with the staid society of the United States, Mexico was perhaps the single most important country in his life. Sourcing material from the Beat authors vast output and revealing correspondence, GarcaRobles vividly describes the milieu and people that influenced him while sojourning there and the circumstances between his myriad arrivals and departures. From the writers initial euphoria upon encountering Mexico and its fascinating tableau of humanity to his tortured relationship with a Mexican prostitute who inspired his novella Tristessa, this volume chronicles Kerouacs often illusory view of the country while realistically detailing the incidents and individuals that found their way into his poetry and prose.In juxtaposing Kerouacs idyllic image of Mexico with his actual experiences of being extorted, assaulted, and harassed, GarcaRobles offers the essential Mexican perspective. Finding there the spiritual nourishment he was starved for in the United States, Kerouac held fast to his idealized notion of the country, even as the stories he recounts were as much literary as real.
