Theme: Jack Kerouac at 100

This week is the centennial of the birth of Jack Kerouac, the great beat novelist and poet. Kerouac, who died in 1969 at age 47 from a hemorrhage caused by cirrhosis due to long-term alcoholism, was born Jean-Louis Lebris de Kerouac to French Canadian parents in Lowell, Massachusetts on March 12th, 1922. Kerouac’s parents were among the nearly one million French Canadians who migrated from Quebec to the New England states to find work there between 1840 and 1930. Kerouac’s mother tongue was French and he didn’t learn to speak English until he went to school at age six. And, apparently, despite being born in the U.S., Kerouac identified as Canadian.

In the 1990s, the late Kate McGarrigle worked on – but didn’t finish – a musical about Jack Kerouac. “Jacques et Gilles” is about French Canadians – like Kerouac’s parents – who migrated to New England.
