Jack Kerouac said this was his 'most serious sad and true book yet', and I'm sure it must have meant a lot to him, since it was based on the death of his younger brother Gerard, written from his own (or at least his alter ego Duluoz's) perspective as a child. Sadly, it was lost on me - again, maybe because I read it after I'd read far too much Kerouac by then already.
