I’m grateful to live right near Kerouac park. It’s a beautiful tribute to a revolutionary writer known the world over. He was born not too far away on Lupine Rd. I had the opportunity to spend most of my day there last month and hang out with and get to know some of the locals. The park is in the shape of a circle and a cross representing Jack’s faith in Catholicism and Buddhism. The park consists of marble pieces with inscriptions of some of his selected prose works like Dr. Sax, Mexico City Blues, Maggie Cassidy, Visions of Gerard and The Town and the City. The park could definitely use a cleaning, but is a touching memorial to a renegade of literary culture.
