''A remarkable ear for the cadences of a phrase or sentence, a sense of how to register in words the sheer, sweet flow of things'' Guardian
This semi-autobiographical tale of Kerouac''s own trip to France, to trace his ancestors and explore his own understanding of the Buddhism that came to define his beliefs, contains some of Kerouac''s most lyrical descriptions. From his reports of the strangers he meets and the all-night conversations he enjoys in seedy bars in Paris and Brittany, to the moment in a cab he experiences Buddhism''s satori - a feeling of sudden awakening - Kerouac''s affecting and revolutionary writing transports the reader.
Published at the height of his fame, Satori in Paris is a hectic tale of philosophy, identity and the powerful strangeness of travel.
