kitduke 's review for:
On the Road
by Jack Kerouac
Maybe it’s because I was aware of Kerouac’s anxieties over influence beforehand but I could kind of tell at points. There were a few occasions where he tried a specific narrative voice and then never used it again. His idea of ‘spontaneous prose’ is very interesting and I only struggled with it because the frantic writing didn’t always allow for a lot of insight. But this is more an observation than a critique. I found that their final stretch, in Mexico, was by far the best part. Beautiful beautiful. And anytime Kerouac describes a jazz set.
Anytime I read this book at work it would get a lot of reception from middle aged/older men which was quite funny
