Wake up : a life of the Buddha / prepared by Jack Kerouac ; introduction by Robert A. F. Thurman. by Kerouac, Jack, 1922-1969. New York : Viking, 2008. Subjects Gautama Buddha.   Buddhists -- India -- Biography.   Buddhism -- Doctrines. ISBN:  9780670019571 : 0670019577 Description:  xxix, 146 p. ; 22 cm. Requests:  0 Summary:  Though raised Catholic, in the early 1950s Jack Kerouac became fascinated with Buddhism, an interest that would have a profound impact on his ideas of spirituality and their expression in his writing. Published for the first time in book form, this is Kerouac's retelling of the story of Prince Siddhartha Gautama, who as a young man abandoned his wealthy family and comfortable home for a lifelong search for enlightenment. As a compendium of the teachings of the Buddha, Wake Up is a meditation on the nature of life, desire, wisdom, and suffering. Distilled from a variety of canonical scriptures, Wake Up serves as both a concise primer on the concepts of Buddhism and as a document of Kerouac's evolving beliefs. It is the work of a devoted spiritual follower of the Buddha who also happened to be one of the twentieth century's most influential novelists.--From publisher description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 294.363 Gautama Buddha Ke Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.363 Kerouac Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.363 Ke Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.363 Ke Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.363 Ke Checked out 06/12/2024 Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.363 Ke Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.363 Ke Lost 10/29/2015 Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.363 Ke Checked out 06/07/2024 Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.363 Ke missing from shelf   Add Copy to MyList
