Dive into Big Sur, a timeless classic from the iconic bohemian traveler, Jack Kerouac. The narrative, told through the eyes of Jack Dulouz - a character largely inspired by Kerouac himself, orbits around his struggle to balance the unexpected fame from his successful writing career and his personal battle with alcoholism. The backdrop for this introspective journey is the serene and isolated cabin in the heart of Big Sur, California. (Narration by Ben Tucker)
