"A blockbuster of a biography . . . absolutely magnificent."--San Francisco Chronicle Jack Kerouac--"King of the Beats," unwitting catalyst for the '60s counterculture, groundbreaking author--was a complex and compelling man: a star athlete with a literary bent; a spontaneous writer vilified by the New Critics but adored by a large, youthful readership; a devout Catholic but aspiring Buddhist; a lover of freedom plagued by crippling alcoholism.Desolate Angel follows Kerouac from his childhood in the mill town of Lowell, Massachusetts, to his early years at Columbia where he met Allen Ginsberg, William S. Burroughs, and Neal Cassady, beginning a four-way friendship that would become a sociointellectual legend. In rich detail and with sensitivity, Dennis McNally recounts Kerouac's frenetic cross-country journeys, his experiments with drugs and sexuality, his travels to Mexico and Tangier, the sudden fame that followed the publication of On the Road, the years of literary triumph, and the final near-decade of frustration and depression.
Desolate Angel is a harrowing, compassionate portrait of a man and an artist set in an extraordinary social context. The metamorphosis of America from the Great Depression to the Kennedy administration is not merely the backdrop for Kerouac's life but is revealed to be an essential element of his art . . . for Kerouac was above all a witness to his exceptional times.

Decent Suit, But the Sizing Is Way Off
Color: Black, Size: XX-Large
I really wanted to like this suit because the material and overall look are actually pretty decent for the price. The jacket and vest fit about how I expected for an XXL—no complaints there. But the pants? I swear they could fit a small horse.
I ordered the WULFUL Men’s 3-Piece Slim Fit Suit in Black, XX‑Large, and the pants that came with it were massive. They’re supposed to be part of a “slim fit” set, but the waist and leg width are so oversized that I have no idea what size they were aiming for. It honestly feels like they just toss in whatever pants are nearby.
If you’re buying this suit, be prepared for a trip to the tailor… or to exchange the whole thing. The suit itself is okay, but the sizing consistency is terrible.

Good quality suit, but size up.
The suit seemed was very good quality. It was too small, so size up. We had to send it back, but the refund process was very simple and easy! Thank you for the easy transaction!
