Review: Winter of His Discontent: Jack Kerouac in Detroit


Winter of His Discontent: Jack Kerouac in Detroit
Winter of His Discontent: Jack Kerouac in Detroit by John Cohassey

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



An interesting, if matter-of-fact, overview of Kerouac's life focusing on his time in and orbit around Detroit (Grosse Pointe) and his first wife, Edie. Mostly biographical, this work brings in quotes from the scroll version of [b:On the Road|70401|On the Road|Jack Kerouac|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1395353795s/70401.jpg|1701188] and more of [a:Jack Kerouac|1742|Jack Kerouac|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1287257192p2/1742.jpg]'s earliest novels.
