'The most beautifully executed, the clearest and the most important utterance yet made by the generation Kerouac himself named years ago as 'beat.' - the New York Times

On the Road swings to the rhythms of 1950s underground America, jazz, generosity, chill dawns, with Sal Paradise and his hero Dean, traveller and mystic, the living epitome of Beat. Now recognized as a modern classic, its American Dream is nearer that of Walt Whitman than Scott Fitzgerald, and it goes racing towards the sunset with unforgettable exuberance, poignancy and autobiographical passion.

    That's a triple opinion of yours and an unneccasary neg as you can't find a better price for it at the moment, can you?

    This book is like The Great Gatsby or Breakfast At Tiffany's in that people that haven't read it love to idealise what they think it's about. Except that the other two weren't written in a three week benzedrine haze, hence are actually well written.

  Borrow FREE from local library or online libraries. After all - you've already paid towards it!
  (Available at libraries near me in print, eBook, audiobook.)

  ©1957… Its been sitting around for a long time!

  Found stories of the drug-addled lifestyle, very different writing process & the influence of the book on many at that time - far more interesting than the book. (I gave up on it.)

  “the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars "

  It's my favourite book. Read it, particularly if you are in your 20's and want to travel; and smash.
