Jack Kerouac, American author and poet (March 12, 1922 - October 21, 1969) was born Jean-Louis Kerouac in Lowell, Massachusetts, to French Canadian parents. Jack Kerouac is considered a literary iconoclast and, alongside William S. Burroughs and Allen Ginsberg, a pioneer of the Beat Generation. Kerouac is recognized for his method of spontaneous prose. Thematically, his work covers topics such as Catholic spirituality, jazz, promiscuity, Buddhism, drugs, poverty, and travel. He became an underground celebrity and, with other beats, a progenitor of the hippie movement, although he remained antagonistic toward some of its politically radical elements. In 1969, aged 47, Kerouac died from internal bleeding due to long-term alcohol abuse. Since his death, Kerouac' literary prestige has grown, and several previously unseen works have been published. All of his books are in print today, including The Town and the City, On the Road, Doctor Sax, The Dharma Bums, Mexico City Blues, The Subterraneans, Desolation Angels, Visions of Cody, The Sea Is My Brother, and Big Sur. Jack Kerouac died of esophageal hemorrhage caused by cirrhosis of the liver at St. Anthony's Hospital in St. Petersburg, Florida, aged 47. #born Jean-Louis Kerouac, he is considered a literary iconoclast and, alongside William S.
