Biographies

Buckle up for a wild ride along the California coast with Jack Kerouac's "Big Sur." This freewheeling novel chronicles a crazed road trip fueled by booze, benzedrine, and a frantic search for meaning. Join Kerouac as he navigates a haze of hallucinations, encounters a cast of eccentric characters, and grapples with the pressures of fame and the undercurrents of grief. "Big Sur" is a raw, poetic exploration of self-discovery, chasing inspiration, and the ever-present struggle for sanity on the fringes of society. Is it a chaotic mess or a literary masterpiece? Hit play and find out for yourself.
