Title: Book of Blues
Author: Jack Kerouac
Publisher: Penguin Books
Rating: 6.5
I will admit that I'm fascinated with Jack Kerouac. He is a one of a kind author who has an every day style of writing. Book of Blues seems a bit disjointed in spots and not always easy to follow. By the end I could pick up on what Kerouac was communicating. I read his first book On The Road a couple of years back so I wasn't a stranger to his work.
Book of Blues was the third book by Kerouac that I read. His writing is more prose than poetry. I admire his quirky personality and his many travels around the globe. It is because of his quirkiness that I will read his other work. I will read a biography of his life and then, maybe, I can have a grasp of writings.
