PENGUIN Historical Fiction Novels Editorial Review
Desolation Angels by Jack Kerouac is a split book that includes some rambling and abstract Prose that can be difficult to read. The first part is an excerpt from Kerouac's journals when he was working as a fire lookout. This part covers his struggle with Buddhism, his observations on life, childhood, memory, and dreams. The rest of the book showcases Kerouac's struggle to balance solitude with his sociability, rising fame, and excitement about the Beat Generation. The Prose is poetic and lyrical and covers topics like traveling, being alone, his friends, and the spiritual life of the Beat Generation. Overall, Desolation Angels is well worth the effort, but it may not be an easy read for everyone.
