On the Road

Updated: 7 Sep 2020
On the Road chronicles Jack Kerouac's years traveling the North American continent with his friend Neal Cassady, "a sideburned hero of the snowy West." As "Sal Paradise" and "Dean Moriarty," the two roam the country in a quest for self-knowledge and experience. Kerouac's love of America, his compassion for humanity, and his sense of language as jazz combine to make On the Road an inspirational work of lasting importance. Kerouac's classic novel of freedom and longing defined what it meant to be “Beat” and has inspired every generation since its initial publication more than forty years ago. @Didn'tTypeOnTP!

Supporting his picks, Buscemi added: “Junkie really describes the life that William S. Burroughs lived in New York – his life of, I guess he was writing about the 1940’s, and then Queer is when he lived in Mexico City, and Jack Kerouac’s On the Road has always been a favourite too.”
