Details: 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 chihuahua 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.
