Author: Jack Kerouac (USA)
Publisher:
Publish Date: 2006-10-01
Features: A timeless Bible for worldly rebels and fighters, the soul autobiography of the spirit of the Beat Generation! On the Road is Jack Kerouac's second novel. In an era where extreme fashion fragments attention and dulls sensitivity, if the birth of a truly artistic work holds any significant meaning, the publication of this book is a historic event. [Novel] It is excellently written, a clear and important expression of Kerouac himself, who was once the main representative of the "Beat Generation." He and his friends were a "rebel group," trying to "see the world with a perspective that could bring something new to it. They tried to find convincing values." They believed that all this could be achieved through literature, giving rise to the idea of creating a "new illusion" that critiques all existing social customs. The characters in On the Road are essentially "seeking," with a specific goal in the spiritual realm. Although they travel across the country at the slightest excuse in search of excitement, their true journey lies in the spiritual realm. If they seem to have crossed most legal and moral boundaries, their starting point was merely the hope of finding faith on the other side. On the Road can be ranked alongside Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby as a classic work of American literature, exploring the theme of personal freedom and questioning the promise of the "American Dream."
