On the Road swings to the rhythms of 1950s underground America: jazz, sex, generosity, chill dawns and drugs. It chronicles Jack Kerouac’s years travelling North America with his friend Neal Cassady. As “Sal Paradise” and “Dean Moriarty”, they are the living epitome of the Beat Generation, roaming the country in a quest for self-knowledge and experience. Now recognized as a modern classic, the narrative races towards the sunset with unforgettable exuberance, poignancy and passion. Complete and unabridged.
