    Good, maybe too good.

    Pros: Excellent writing, brings out the vagabond in everyone. Cons: The good makes the lack of morals pictured seem less imoral. Historically, Kerouac's classic is a must-read. It shows the existential/hedonistic roots of the Beat movement while also picturing the Taoistic tendencies of people like Jack Kerouac, Neal Cassady, and Allen Ginsberg.

    freedom and Beat generation

    Jack Kerouac make us travel all across America at a lightning speed of the Beat generation. The main caracter and his road friends take us on mad trips and stories. Jack Kerouac didn't go out of his house when he wrote this book which he wrote on a 1 shot non stop, using a special paper to hold the full book in it.
