Just thought I'd point out that Paterson was Allen Ginsberg's home town and also, I believe, the home of the poet William Carlos Williams. Not only that but I seem to remember Lou Costello (of the Forties comedy team Abbot and Costello)came from Paterson and used to go back for big hometown parades just about the time that Jack sets his novel.
