Kerouac remembered as Beat author and wanderer in 1969
A reflective column recalls Jack Kerouac, his beat generation, and the allure of freedom. It notes his writing method, autobiographical books, later isolation, and death at 47. The piece contrasts the mythic image with the man at a New York party and reflects on why his message failed to resonate with younger readers. Also announced is Bach Cantata No. 130 to be performed at Williams College with two choruses and a chamber orchestra.
