Context paragraphs:
Jack Kerouac: Jack Kerouac ( or , born Jean-Louis Kérouac (though he called himself Jean-Louis Lebris de Kérouac); March 12, 1922 – October 21, 1969) was an American novelist and poet.

Readings by Jack Kerouac on the Beat Generation: Readings by Jack Kerouac on the Beat Generation is the third and final spoken word album by the American novelist and poet Jack Kerouac, released in January 1960 on Verve Records.  The album was recorded during 1959, prior to the publication of Kerouac's sixth novel, "Doctor Sax".

Visions of Gerard: Visions of Gerard is a 1963 novel by American Beat writer Jack Kerouac.  It is the first volume in Kerouac's "Duluoz Legend".  Unique among Kerouac's novels, "Visions of Gerard" focuses on the scenes and sensations of childhood as evidenced in the tragically short yet happy life of his older brother, Gerard.  Kerouac paints a picture of the boy as a saint, who loves all creatures and teaches this doctrine to four-year-old Jack.  Set in Kerouac's hometown of Lowell, Massachusetts, it is a beautiful but unsettling exploration of the meaning and precariousness of existence.

Old Angel Midnight: Old Angel Midnight is a long narrative poem by American novelist and poet Jack Kerouac.  It was culled from five notebooks spanning from 1956 to 1959, while Kerouac was fully absorbed by his studies of Buddhism and Buddhist philosophy.  Kerouac initially experimented with Old Angel Midnight (then called "Lucien Midnight") in 1953 in his diary titled "1953.  Notes again."  In entries dated from November 20 to December 3, 1953, he made notes on "Lucien Midnight" which was to be originally conceptualized in what he called "book movie" form, when he closed his eyes and projected onto paper a cinematic sense of what he heard.  A bookmovie, he explained in Some of the Dharma, is a "prose concentration camera-eye visions of a definite movie of the mind with fade-ins, pans, close-ups, and fade-outs."  Kerouac's notes on Lucien Midnight were written while staying in the Lower East Side where he initially heard sounds coming through a tenement window from the wash court below.  He then heard voices coming from kitchens of the other occupants in nearby apartment buildings and a man named Paddy arriving home drunk, and even a junky stirring in his bed.  Kerouac conceptualized an idea of developing a work based on James Joyce’s experimental novel "Finnegans Wake" (not "Ulysses" as indicated by Ann Charters in her introduction to "Old Angel Midnight" for Grey Fox Press) where the “sounds of the universe” became the chief “plot” with all of its associated “neologisms, mental associations, puns and wordmixes” that stewed a plethora of languages and “nonlanguages.”  Kerouac determinedly “scribbled out in a strictly intuitional discipline at breakneck speed” the fledgling prose that would finally comprise the finished book for City Lights's Pocket Poet series eight years later.  Kerouac's one dogma was to compose Lucien Midnight strictly in pencil by candlelight.  Lucien Midnight differs from his sketching method of writing because it is based upon an aural experience, and not visual.  The bookmovie approach was abandoned in 1953 in favor of a different approach he had stylistically achieved by 1956.

Dan Masterson: Dan Masterson (born February 22, 1934) is an American poet born in Buffalo, New York, United States (US).  He became a poet after several jobs as an actor, narrator, disc jockey (DJ), lay missionary worker, advertising copywriter, and theatrical public relations director.

The Town and the City: The Town and the City is a novel by Jack Kerouac, published by Harcourt Brace in 1950.  This was the first major work published by Kerouac, who later became famous for his second novel "On the Road" (1957).  Like all of Jack Kerouac's major works, "The Town and the City" is essentially an autobiographical novel, though less directly so than most of his other works.  "The Town and the City" was written in a conventional manner over a period of years, and much more novelistic license was taken with this work than after Kerouac's adoption of quickly written "spontaneous prose".  "The Town and the City" was written before Kerouac had developed his own style, and it is heavily influenced by Thomas Wolfe (even down to the title, reminiscent of Wolfe titles such as "The Web and the Rock").

Jack Kerouac Reads On the Road: Jack Kerouac Reads On the Road is a compilation album by American novelist and poet Jack Kerouac.  The centrepiece of the record is a 28-minute recitation by Kerouac from his book "On the Road" that was recorded on an acetate disc in the 1950s but thought lost for decades, and had only recently been rediscovered at the time of release.  Other tracks feature Kerouac singing renditions of Jazz hits from the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s alongside songs and poems of his own composition.

When I Was Cool: When I Was Cool: My Life at the Jack Kerouac School is Sam Kashner's autobiographical account of his experience as the first student at the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics, which was founded by Allen Ginsberg and Anne Waldman in honor of their late friend, Jack Kerouac.  As he describes in his book, Kashner was a disgruntled Long Island teenager in the 1970s who was obsessed with the poetry and prose of the Beat generation of the 1950s.

Off the Road: Off the Road: Twenty Years with Cassady, Kerouac and Ginsberg is an autobiographical book by Carolyn Cassady.  Originally published in 1990 as "Off the Road: My Years with Cassady, Kerouac, and Ginsberg", it was republished by London's Black Spring Press, coinciding with the fiftieth anniversary of Jack Kerouac's "On the Road".  "Off the Road" recounts the history of Carolyn Cassady, wife of Jack Kerouac's traveling companion and "On the Road"'s hero Neal Cassady.  As Neal's wife and Kerouac's intermittent lover, Carolyn Cassady was well situated to record the inception of the Beat Generation and its influence on American culture.

Big Sur (novel): Big Sur is a 1962 novel by Jack Kerouac.  It recounts the events surrounding Kerouac's (here known by the name of his fictional alter-ego Jack Duluoz) three brief sojourns to a cabin in Bixby Canyon, Big Sur, owned by Kerouac's friend and Beat poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti.  The novel departs from Kerouac's previous fictionalized autobiographical series in that the character Duluoz is shown as a popular, published author.  The Subterraneans also mentions Kerouac's (Leo Percepied) status as an author, and in fact even mentions how some of the bohemians of New York are beginning to talk in slang derived from his writing.  Kerouac's previous novels are restricted to depicting Kerouac's days as a bohemian traveller.
