    Kerouac's On The Road

    Probably THE Great American Novel. The "beat" generation is making a comeback with today's generation, so the idea of hitchhiking across the country and truly experiencing America (minus the tourist attractions) has been highly romanticized. The protagonist, Sal Paradise, is meant to represent the literary "every man". He's a struggling writer who has decided to take some time off and meet his friends in Denver. So he hitchhikes because he does not have money or a car. Along the way, he chronicles his misadventures in love, friendship, and basically the entirety of human nature. It was written using a stream of consciousness style that can make it difficult for some people. He tends to ramble somewhat, or rather, to backtrack. Some sections of ...

    A REVIEW OF ONE THE ROAD, KEROUAC

    I keep waiting for something to actually "happen" in this book. The story reads like a diary. Sal leaves New Jersey - nearly broke most of the time - and makes his way to the West Coast of the United States either by train or bus or hitch hiking.........the characters he meets along the way are rather mundane, skid row types. He seems enchanted by many of them. The jobs he takes to earn a few bucks are also non descript. I am mid-way through the book and not sure if I care to finish it. It does get good reviews - at the time it was published.........but I find it quite simplistic and rather boring.

    On the Road

    I just finished reading the legendary novel "On the Road" by Jack Kerouac. It's his most famous piece of work and it's easy to see why. The book is an easy read compared to some of his later, more experimental work like The Subterraneans or Big Sur. The characters are vivid and go through a fair amount of development over the years the book takes place. If you wanna read Jack Kerouac, this is the place to start.
