cthib9 's review for:
On the Road
by Jack Kerouac
Not quite sure how to go with this. I don't come away with any significant underlying messages, this was just about people doing things. That is the laziest analysis I can come up with, as it describes almost every story.
At the risk of sounding ignorant, I don't get the Beat generation. The people featured here, trailblazers of the post-war Beat path, make poor, impulsive decisions and let their thoughts wander too far out of bounds to be of any use.
But Corey, this was how life was for a generation. Whether you agree with it or not, this actually happened and it's a life you can't comprehend. Hence the reason you pick up books in the first place: to learn.
Still - with a grand and intricate world out there, some topics just aren't worth your time or interest.
