Beschreibung des Verlags
Sal Paradise, a young innocent, joins his hero Dean Moriarty, a traveller and mystic, the living epitome of beat, on a breathless, exuberant ride back and forth across the United States. Their hedonistic search for release or fulfilment through drink, sex, drugs and jazz becomes an exploration of personal freedom, a test of the limits of the American dream.
A brilliant blend of fiction and autobiography, Jack Kerouac's exhilarating novel swings to the rhythms of 1950s underground America, racing towards the sunset with unforgettable exuberance, poignancy and autobiographical passion. One of the most influential and important novels of the 20th century, On the Road is the book that launched the beat generation and remains the bible of that literary movement.
Kundenrezensionen
Dense, absorbing, and beautiful language
No need to emphasise that the book is a classic. Its complex language wraps around you
as the road flows beneath. Matt Dillon beautiful narration mirrors the book. His deep voice carries calmness but also signals alert all the way back and forth across the land. This audio book is a must for everybody embarking on a road trip across the States. It will create an unforgettable memory.
