Synopsis "Personajes Secundarios"

In the late 1950s, a handful of artists from the countercultural circles of New York and San Francisco who coincided in their artistic postulates and in their rejection of the conventions of their time, Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, Gregory Corso, Willem de Kooning, and William S. Burroughs among them, became a symbol of the unrest of a whole generation of young Americans. Although she was not a main character of the Beat generation, and was instead more of a minor character, Joyce Johnson—Jack Kerouac’s girlfriend during that time—became, years later, one of its best chroniclers. In these evocative and wise memories, Johnson narrates not only her experiences with the Beats and her tumultuous years with Kerouac, but also her struggle for her own independence. A finales de los años cincuenta, un puñado de artistas procedentes de los círculos contraculturales de Nueva York y San Francisco que coincidían en sus postulados artísticos y en su rechazo a las convenciones de su tiempo, y entre los que se encontraban Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, Gregory Corso, Willem de Kooning y William S. Burroughs, se convirtieron en símbolo del malestar de toda una generación de jóvenes norteamericanos. Aunque no era una figura central de la generación beat, sino más bien un personaje secundario, Joyce Johnson—pareja de Jack Kerouac en aquella época—se convirtió, años después, en una de sus mejores cronistas. En estas evocadoras y sabias memorias Johnson relata no sólo sus vivencias con los beats y sus turbulentos años al lado de Kerouac, sino también la lucha por su propia independencia.
