New York Times Book Review
Kerouac's peculiar genius infects every page.
Rolling Stone
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.”
The Guardian (London)
Vivid, moving, and funny.”
New York Herald Tribune
Kerouac dreams of America in the authentic rolling rhythms of a Whitman or a Thomas Wolfe, drunk with eagerness for life.”
New York Times
Kerouac’s peculiar genius infects every page.”
Time
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.”
