of On the Road<br />

JACk keRouAC (1922–1969) was one of the most<br />

controversial and influential writers of the Beat Generation. His<br />

celebrated books include On the Road, The Dharma Bums, and<br />

Visions of Cody.<br />

“ A major novel . . . the most beautifully<br />

executed, the clearest, and the most important<br />

utterance yet made by the generation Kerouac<br />

himself named years ago as ‘beat.’”<br />

—The New York Times<br />

“ On the Road has the kind of drive that blasts<br />

through to a large public. . . . What makes the<br />

novel really important, what gives it that drive<br />

is a genuine, new, engaging, and exciting prose<br />

style. . . . What keeps the book going is the<br />

power and beauty of the writing.”<br />

—Kenneth Rexroth, San Francisco Chronicle<br />

“ A highly euphoric and intensely<br />

readable story about a group of<br />

wandering young hedonists who cross the<br />

country in endless search of kicks.”<br />

—Leonard Feather, DownBeat
