It’s all about how much better at french kerouac is than french people lol
Kerouac does it again. This could be Kerouac at his best. I read this cover to cover whilst waiting for a plane and feel ready to read it cover to cover again. It's rammed full of Kerouac wit, plays on words and sounds, and a notable sense that his writing is immune to judgement. This immunity, sometimes arrogance, means the story or narrative (sometimes neither - just a mélange of words) is printed exactly as made sense to Kerouac, whether it does to the reader or not. It gives the sense that no editor on earth has the authority to change the way a single word or punctuation falls.
The novella tells the autobiographical story of Kerouac's travels to Paris and Brittany to research his family history. Ironically, the area Kerouac's family had left is the area my family recently immigrated too, and so I enjoyed the humour around the Breton tongue, place names and geography.
Unsurprisingly of Kerouac, this great voyage to track his genealogy ended less in family research and instead in him simply walking the streets at night and enjoying the local bars.
