    I really really enjoyed Subterraneans it seems to be that the underlying theme of most of the Kerouac I’ve been reading is his battle with alcoholism. Here he destroyed a relationship that he felt held a lot of potential because he couldn’t stop drinking and going out, and flirting with boys (even though he was straight!). It was hard to read in lots of ways as there were times when it reminded me a little too much of me 6 years ago, and people I’ve known. But it was also quite fantastic. I thought Mardou was pretty great for a crazy girl who hung out with junkies. I think it’s quite telling that when it was made into a movie she became white. But it was definitely one of the best Kerouac stories I’ve read.

  • I connected with Kerouac at one point in my life and read quite a bit of his work. I do not recall much of this story.
