Inside This Book (Learn More)

First Sentence
SOMEWHERE DURING MY TEN DAYS IN PARIS (AND Brittany) I received an illumination of some kind that seems to've changed me again, towards what I suppose'll be my pattern for another seven years or more: in effect, a satori: the Japanese word for "sudden illumination," "sudden awakening" or simply "kick in the eye."

5.0 out of 5 stars A journey of Kerouac is explored, Mar 18 2003

By	GEG (Grand Rapids, MI) - See all my reviews

"Satori in Paris" explores a trip to France by Mr. Kerouac. In it we vist many of the interesting people and places that Jack runs into during his odyssey of sorts of self exploration. If memory serves me right I think this may have been his last novel published. Like many of his other great works "Satori" perfectly captures the vibe and feel of the pre-sixties, pre-Vietnam era beat generation.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Soul of Kerouac, Feb 3 2002

By	Patrick Julian Cassidy (San Francisco...Author of "A Journey to Bohemia") - See all my reviews

This book provides the reader with the best chance of
exploring the roots of Kerouac's spitituality. Far too
often the beats are viewed as a bunch of intellectual
hedonists whose love for verse was equalled only
by their indulgence in the various permetations of
chemical abuse. The beats set the stage for the 60's,
and America's search for a true a national spirituality.
As "King of the Beats", Kerouac takes the reader into an
in depth analysis of what lay at the very heart of the

beat movement-the journey is the reward in and of itself.

4.0 out of 5 stars Satori is the experience of knowing, Oct 12 1999

By A Customer

This is by far Kerouac's most enlightening book. He expresses his deep emotion of the Buddhist culture. Satori comes only when the main character follows the Path of Enlightenment and the Four Noble Truths of Tibetian Buddhism. a must read for any Kerouac fan or anyone who wants to share the experience of Eastern wisdom and thought.
