Overview

Un volume che raccoglie gli haiku composti da Kerouac tra il 1956 e il 1966, seguendo le suggestioni provenienti dalla cultura orientale: brevissime poesie che nel limitato spazio di diciassette sillabe e tre versi racchiudono, secondo la secolare tradizione giapponese, un'intera visione della vita. Lampi di pura illuminazione in cui il grande scrittore riesce a reinventare un genere totalmente nuovo per la letteratura americana.
Un libro che rivela un aspetto inedito e sorprendente del genio letterario di Kerouac, troppo spesso noto solo come il grande maestro della Beat Generation.

About the Author

About The Author
Jack Kerouac (1922-1969) was an American author and painter and the central figure of the Beat Generation of the 1950s. His most famous books include On the Road, The Dharma Bums, and Big Sur. Several of his novels have been adapted into popular films. In 1959 Kerouac released his long-form poem, Mexico City Blues, which is his most important work of poetry. Few authors can claim as large an influence on American culture as Jack Kerouac and his examinations of youth and rebellion.
