I can tell you from the first couple of chapters that I have read, that Kerouac was searching for an "Americaness" that seemed very logical and ordinary to his inner being.<BR/><BR/>There is something to be said about that drive for Americaness in the practice of literature. Some things have become clearer to me concerning American culture by reading it.Littlemilkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08875308841224185781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20306110.post-48797108299446049012007-04-08T10:31:00.000-05:002007-04-08T10:31:00.000-05:00I haven't read ON THE ROAD either, and I need to. ...I haven't read ON THE ROAD either, and I need to.

When I read it ten years ago, I had trouble . . . but I was a lit guy then.<BR/><BR/>I will be sure to check out Brasseaux's book. Now I am reading ON THE ROAD. I have been so embarassed about not reading it . . . but since I have gotten back to NYC, some writers are now speaking to me in a way they could not have before.<BR/><BR/>Ah! . . .

St. Landry Parish? It is more or less in Acadiana, up the bayou, but I guess you know that. There's Carl Brasseaux' book too, <BR/>http://www.amazon.com/Creoles-Color-Bayou-Country-Brasseaux/dp/0878059490 , don't know if it will help in a specific way, but it is interesting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
