The Alternate Consciousness as Freedom and Critique.
This paper looks at the novels "On the Road" and "The Naked Lunch" as examples of counter-cultural madness, where in the work of critiquing American culture, the authors choose madness as a site of exile. In each novel, the consciousness is foregrounded as the ultimate destination, where the journey to freedom is internal. Each essay also reflects strong influences of jazz music as the performance of altered realities, the transgression from confined culture towards alternative cultural sites of improvisation. 7 pgs.
