In Lonesome Traveller we join Jack Kerouac the enfant terrible of the Beat poets, as he roams the US, Mexico, Morocco, Paris & London, breathlessly recording the life of the road. Standing on the engine of a train as it rushes past fields of prickly cactus; witnessing his first bullfight in Mexico while high on opium; catching up with the beat night-life in New York; burying himself in the snow capped mountains of north-west America; meditating on a sunlit roof in Tangiers; or falling in love with Montmartre & the huge white basilica of Sacré Couer
- Kerouac reveals the endless diversity of human life & his own high-spirited philosophy of self-fulfillment. Highly recommended for both seasoned readers of Kerouac & his contemporaries, & also for those looking for a heavy dose of wanderlust.
