Jack Kerouac
Doctor Sax is a haunting novel of deeply felt adolescence.
Jack Kerouac tells the story of Jack Duluoz, a French-Canadian boy growing up in Kerouac’s own birthplace, the dingy factory town of Lowell, Massachusetts. There, Doctor Sax, with his flowing cape, slouched hat, and insinuating leer, is chief among the many ghosts and demons that populate Jack’s fantasy world.
Deftly mingling memory and dream, Kerouac captures the accents and textures of his boyhood in Lowell in this novel of a cryptic, apocalyptic hipster phantom, in a novel that he once described as “the greatest book I ever wrote, or that I will write.”

“Duluoz is exuberantly profane and comfortably delinquent…Full of pinball prose, Doctor Sax is an elegy to the warm, safe smells of a tenement kitchen and the dark mysteries of a city neighborhood. It is Kerouac’s best book.”
(Time)“Kerouac dreams of America in the authentic rolling rhythms of a Whitman or a Thomas Wolfe, drunk with eagerness for life.”
(New York Herald Tribune)“Spooky and tender with stretches of sheer phosphorescent fantasy, Doctor Sax has a vigor and thirst for life. A real prize, one of the lost gems of modern literature.”
(Rolling Stone)“Vivid, moving, and funny.”
(The Guardian (London))“Kerouac’s peculiar genius infects every page.”
(New York Times)
