I have to admit...Quirky language that Quebecois...<br /><br />I have to admit I couldn't read more than a hundred pages of this type of stuff, it is heavy-going but I took 'Satori in Paris' almost as you would a quick, snappy peace of poetry or even music .... the kind of thing you don't settle down to read but more...stick in your back pocket as you mooch around Paris dipping in and out of bars, relishing your next absinthe and enjoying the ambiance and quirky characters (stereotypical I know!)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11911232519231082170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453339569920477816.post-26278907002569638662011-05-15T22:34:12.477+01:002011-05-15T22:34:12.477+01:00I had no idea that Kerouac was Canadian.

One of those lovely occasions where you read something and wonder how anyone could express themselves so...at the risk of sounding a little cheesy - sublimely!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11911232519231082170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453339569920477816.post-79629598717102043962011-05-09T19:54:54.881+01:002011-05-09T19:54:54.881+01:00Hi Kate

He didn't look like your photo. He was something in his youth, wasn't he? As to his writing . . . excuse me while I swipe some drool from my chin . . . there!
