Abstract
The article deals with one of the last novels of the American beatnik writer Jack Kerouac “Satori in Paris” as a work in which the author turns his trip to France in order to find the origins of his ancestral roots into an existential adventure. The attempt to find an identity for the writer becomes both an occasion for creativity and a “spoken” literary work (A. P. Bondarev) which unpredictably turns into one of the bright pages of his biography and fate.
