Customer Reviews

The poems flow freely like a jazz chorus, like Jack intended
Mexico City Blues shocked and moved me. The freedom with which Kerouac takes his writing, inventing words and splattering images, envys me as an aspiring poet. I have tried to imitate his style but finally realized that only Jack can write like Jack. The poems contained on these pages are some of the greatest I have ever read and reading them is like slowly devouring an entire banquet.

Beat in it's purest, in a word perfect kerouac
Kerouac was a master with words and the rythm of the human voice, his words beatifully crafted are written in a way that you have to read it allowed, a book you'll want with you every where if you appreciate anything about poetry
