I think he was probably the freest man to ever live. And he was fortunate to live right there in the 20th century America. The nations best century. But fame does things to people. And life becomes sad sometimes. Still I love living vicariously through his writings.
@iiwatcher Thats incorrect. He just didnt know how to handle it. I dont think he would be able to create such passion in his books if he hated the world and his life
@eslgurucalif This can't avoid the admiration I feel for the writer. Besides, wrong or right the way he took, he left the next generation the gift of his writings, I won't judge him for this.
@sherman546 Yep, here he doesn't exactly personify the guy I have admired so much. But you gotta take his work as his representative, rather than what alcoholism did to him.

He hated the world, and life, & wanted out. So he drank. He died his way. Simple as that.

@eslgurucalif Kerouac is my favorite writer and I admire him greatly but I have to agree with you. It's too bad he went out the way he did.

Easy to lose respect for him seeing this and his drunken appearance on Buckley show.
