Episode: New Focus with Mike DeRosa - The Literary Afterlife of Jack Kerouac with Bob Perrault

Today on New Focus, Bob Perrault, a New England Scholar of Jack Kerouac will give us a nuanced analysis of the life and work of this cultural giant of American literature:
how people in his hometown of Lowell MA react to Kerouac and his work;
and his significance in the Franco-American culture;
about his huge effect on American cultural history;
and how he rejected that legacy at the end of his life.
