Manage episode 364530757 series 2118648
“Nothing behind me, everything ahead of me, as is ever so on the road.” ― Jack Kerouac, On the Road Hi! Let me introduce you to one of my absolute favorite writers, Jack Kerouac, and three incredible books that have had a profound impact on me as a writer: "On The Road," "The Dharma Bums," and "Big Sur." What makes Kerouac so special? Well, he believed in embracing the present moment and fully immersing oneself in life, breaking free from societal norms and expectations. His words beautifully captured the raw beauty and intensity of his experiences, treating life itself as a work of art. With his philosophy of "spontaneous prose," he encouraged writers to follow the natural rhythm and flow of their minds, avoiding rigid structures and rules. Trust me, once you dive into Kerouac's world, you'll understand why I'm so passionate about him! If you decide to pick up one of his books, I'd love to hear about your experience. 🤍 Don't forget to share and subscribe so you never miss an episode! And if you're curious about my own books and music, you can find them all at www.charlotteeriksson.com. Keywords: Jack Kerouac, Beat poets, Charles Bukowski, nomadic living, minimalism, Beat poetry, On the Road, literary revolution, rebellious spirit, counterculture, wanderlust, self-discovery, contemporary literature, unconventional lifestyle.
