Jack Kerouac je t'aime

Hi modern life, today i’m going to talk about my favorite writer. For my is very dificult choose one, because there are many good writers that I like me. But today, the first write come to my mind is Jack Kerouac. He was a famous American novelist, alongside Williams Burroughs and Allen Ginsberg, is considered a pioneer of Beat Generation. He’s born March 12, 1922 and died October 21, 1969.

The first novel I read was On the road, a classic in the American literature of twentieth century and the beat generation. This novel they based on the travel of Kerouac and his friends across America.  The narrative takes place in the years 1947 to 1950 and shows a specific era in American, in the jazz of the time, the youngs, the poets, the write, and so on.


Recently, I read the novel “The dharma bums”. Is a great novel that I like very much, because, tells the story about Ray Smith, the protagonist, and your friend Ryder, that teaches about Buddhism Zen and introducing in the meditation. Coincidently in the moment that I read this novel, I was interested in the Buddhist and the meditation. I strongly recommend him.

Good bye and xoxoxoxoxoxo.
