Title

Kerouac's forgettable Montreal road trip

Description

Article recognizing the brief hype surrounding the 50th anniversary of the publication of Jack Kerouac's most famous novel, "On the Road." Discusses a much less explored event in Kerouac's life when, in 1967, the author appeared on the Montreal talk show "Sel de la Semaine." The Montreal crowd's reaction to hearing Kerouac speaking in a "rural and unlearned and folkloric" French. Other characteristics of the Lowell, Massachusetts native that the author here argues may be due to Kerouac's Québecois heritage.
