On the Road by Jack Kerouac
Jack Kerouac's classic American novel of freedom and the search for originality that defined a generation"An authentic work of art."--The New York Times
Inspired by Jack Kerouac's adventures with Neal Cassady, On the Road tells the story of two friends whose cross-country road trips are a quest for meaning and true experience. Written with a mixture of sad-eyed naïveté and wild abandon and imbued with Kerouac's love of America, his compassion for humanity, and his sense of language as jazz, On the Road is the quintessential American vision of freedom and hope--a book that changed American literature and changed anyone who has ever picked it up.
