On the Road (Penguin Great Books of the 20th Century)
Jack Kerouac
Penguin (Non-Classics), 1999
My perspective
+ The Classic Outlaw
+ Great book about youth
I rather think On The Road is the kind of book that will either appeal to someone or it won't. I guess most books are that way. But I see so many disparaging reviews either here or in the discussion section that I wanted to start by acknowledging that point.
Personally, I loved the book enough ...
