Información sobre este audiolibro

While his masterpiece On the Road languished on the desks of unresponsive editors, Kerouac turned to Buddhism, and in 1953 began writing reading notes on the subject intended for his friend Allen Ginsberg. As his Buddhist study and meditation practice intensified, what had begun as notes evolved into a vast, all-encompassing work of nonfiction into which he poured his life, incorporating poems, haiku, prayers, journal entries, fragments of letters, ideas about writing, sketches, and more. The final manuscript, completed in 1956, was as visually complex as the writing: each page was unique, typed in patterns and interlocking shapes. The elaborate form that Kerouac so painstakingly gave his books is recreated in this typeset facsimile.
Passionate, playful, ecstatic, filled with humor, insight, beautiful language, sorrow, and struggle, Some of the Dharma is a far-ranging and extremely revealing work.
"Kerouac's work represents the most extensive experiment in language and literary form undertaken by an American writer of his generation." -THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
