On the Road

What`s your road, man? - holyboy road, madman road, rainbow road, guppy road, any road. It`s an anywhere road for anybody anyhow.`Sal Paradise, young and innocent, joins the slightly crazed Dean Moriarty on a breathless, exuberant ride back and forth across the United States. Their hedonistic search for release or fulfilment through drink, sex, drugs and jazz becomes an exploration of personal freedom, a test of the limits of the American Dream. A brilliant blend of fiction and autobiography, Jack Kerouac`s exhilarating novel defined the new `Beat` generation and became the bible of the counter culture. `On the Road sold a trillion Levis and a million espresso machines, and also sent countless kids on the road. The alienation, the restlessness, the dissatisfaction were already there waiting when Kerouac pointed out the road` William Burroughs`
