It incorporates all the elements of his theory of spontaneous composition and his interest in Buddhism. Memories, fantasies, dreams, and surrealistic free association are lyrically combined in the loose format inspired by jazz and the blues. Written while Kerouac was living in Mexico City, and with references to William S. Burroughs, Gregory Corso, and Bill Garver, this exciting book in Kerouac's oeuvre is an original and moving epic of sound, rhythm, and religion.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Grove Atlantic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42326006038734,"sku":"9780802162441","price":39.9,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/0883\/2974\/files\/9780802162441_a.png?v=1704783799","url":"https:\/\/www.bookxcess.live\/products\/mexico-city-blues-9780802162441","provider":"BookXcess","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
