Jack's Memoirs: Off the Road, a Novel

By Kurt Landefeld

Book Overview

If Jack Kerouac had lived, what would he have done and written? Kurt Landefeld opens this door for us in this fine fictional memoir. /

"Kurt Landefeld has brought Jack Kerouac back to life in an new, imagined road-journey. In the sustained force of this catapulting novel you will encounter Kerouac's omnivorous mind as it continues to gulp and swallow the big meanings of life and the richness of American literature and culture." Peter Balakian, author of Black Dog of Fate

"Against all odds, Kurt Landefeld has located another fold within Jack Kerouac's watery heart. This road loa gogo jolts us one more time toward a deep, intentional, and moral narrative, which is the perennial kernel speaking simultaneously through Landefeld and all the great American angels that memory honors". Kenneth Warren, author of Captain Poetry's Sucker Punch: a Guide to the Homeric Punkhole, 1980 -2012
