Wow! This reminds me of Kerouac's own Visions of Gerard. I think there, if I recall that work, Jack almost deifies his brother. I suspect it was JKeroua's attempt to breathe a certain kind of life, a certain immortality, into memories....thereby making them more than memories. Well done, Richard.

You're right on target, M.J.! I'm about to start reading that book. And I believe that it will greatly influence my future writings in the Kerouac Project. Thanks for your valuable input!
