Tristessa

'She understands Karma, she says: "What I do, I reap"'Her name means sadness, yet Tristessa, a prostitute and morphine addict, lives without cares in her shabby room with a menagerie of pets and an altar to the Virgin Mary. Based on Jack Kerouac's own real-life love affair in Mexico city, this is the story of a man's ill-fated relationship with a woman he portrays with tenderness and dignity, even as her life spirals out of control. 'A narrative meditation studying a hen, a rooster, a dove, a cat, a chihuaha dog, family meat, and a ravishing, ravished junky lady, first in their crowded bedroom, then out to drunken streets, taco stands, and pads at dawn in Mexico City slums' Allen Ginsberg

„Intelege Karma, spune:„ Ce fac, culeg ”„ Numele ei inseamna tristete, totusi Tristessa, o prostituata si dependenta de morfina, traieste fara griji in camera ei ponosita, cu o menajerie de animale de companie si un altar pentru Fecioara Maria. . Bazata pe povestea de dragoste din viata reala a lui Jack Kerouac in orasul Mexic, aceasta este povestea relatiei nefericite a unui barbat cu o femeie pe care o infatiseaza cu tandrete si demnitate, chiar si in timp ce viata ei scapa de sub control.
