In his later years, Jack Kerouac considered all his works to be part of a "huge comedy" that he titled "The Legend of the Duluoz." And Jack Duluoz was himself, the protagonist of all his novels. 'Vanity of the Duluoz', written in 1967, is the fascinating story of the writer's formative years. Duluoz, a young man who plays American football splendidly, gets a scholarship, but his education coincides with the Second World War, so he will have an initiation into adult life much more chaotic than he could have imagined. He will enlist in the navy, travel the world, and finally return to a New York where Burroughs, Cassady and Ginsberg await him, and where literature, travel, music, drugs, and the ecstatic adventure of living and writing will begin.
Jean-Louis Lebris de Kérouac, known as Jack Kerouac, was an American novelist and poet who, alongside William S. Burroughs and Allen Ginsberg, was a pioneer of the Beat Generation.
