内容简介Jack Kerouac's classic novel of freedom and longing defined what it meant to be "Beat" and has inspired every generation since its initial publication more than forty years ago.
Introduction by Ann Charters
作者简介Jack Kerouac (1922-1969) considered all of his "true-story novels," includingOn the Road, to be "chapters" of "one vast book," his multi-volume autobiographicalLegend of Duluoz.
Ann Charters is the editor of several Beat compilations, includingThe Portable Beat Reader.
编辑推荐Amazon.co.uk Review
On The Road, the most famous of Jack Kerouac's works, is not only the soul of the Beat movement and literature, but one of the most important novels of the century. Like nearly all of Kerouac's writing, On The Road is thinly fictionalised autobiography, filled with a cast made of Kerouac's real life friends, lovers and fellow travellers. Narrated by Sal Paradise, one of Kerouac's alter-egos, this cross-country bohemian odyssey not only influenced writing in the years since its 1957 publication but penetrated into the deepest levels of American thought and culture. --Acton Lane
