On The Road

Based on Jack Kerouac's own travels, this dynamic novel recounts the story of Dean Moriarty and Sal Paradise, two hipster friends and members of the American counterculture of the late 1940s, who take a hectic, frenetic drive across the USA. The point?  There is no point, other than living life day to day, minute to minute, and to the fullest, with little money in their pockets but lots of music playing and lots of ideas in their heads.
