On the Road, 50th
Anniversary Edition

Few novels have had as profound an impact on American
culture as On the Road. Pulsating with the
rhythms of 1950s underground America, jazz, sex,
illicit drugs, and the mystery and promise of the open
road, Kerouac's classic novel of freedom and longing
defined what it meant to be “beat” and has inspired
generations of writers, musicians, artists, poets, and
seekers who cite their discovery of the book as the
event that “set them free.” |

Why Kerouac Matters
The Lessons of On the Road (They're Not What
You Think)
by John Leland
$23.95 Hardcover
Viking Books
Legions of youthful Americans have taken On the
Road as a manifesto for rebellion and an
inspiration to hit the road. But there is much more to
the novel than that. In Why Kerouac Matters,
John Leland embarks on a wry, insightful, and playful
discussion of the novel, arguing that it still matters
because at its core it is a book that is filled with
lessons about how to grow up. |
