Se mettre dans la peau d'un jeune orphelin noir, voilà ce que Jack Kerouac a réussi à faire dans son tout dernier roman. Dédoublement significatif, aliénation symbolique, projection de sympathie et d'engagement, Pic est certainement tout cela et plus encore : un portrait saisissant du milieu noir américain des années quarante, ses odeurs, ses couleurs, ses personnages truculents.
De la Caroline du Nord à la Californie, en passant par New York, l'errance kerouacienne prend ici une allure inusitée. Représentée par Pic, "vagabond sur la terre", voyageur éternel sans famille ni domicile connu, elle se transforme en une magnifique satire sociale, à la fois naïve et astucieuse, regard éclairant sur le ridicule de la condition humaine.
Pic, roman issu du réveil de la conscience sociale des Noirs, dépeint en fait tout être humain "vivant dans la noirceur" et renferme, par pur divertissement, des pages enfiévrées sur le jazz et la prédication.
