Jack Kerouac

Finishing up Jack Kerouac’s novel: The Town and The City. Its the second time I have read it, and its an interesting read. The beginning of the book, he mentions the city I was born and raised in, the city I reside in now, and the river which is only two blocks away. When I read his books, I feel like I am sitting across the table from him, and having a mind bending conversation.
He was a great writer, who passed away at what I would call a young age (47 y/o).

    It’s always fun when a book takes place where you live. The Dresden Files take place in Chicago and I love it.

    I would also call that a ‘young age’!
    I haven’t read his novels; though, I’ve only heard good things about him…
