And there was Dean in Denver. In San Francisco
and New York. And Mexico. Riding the rails,
hitching lifts, driving borrowed cars at a crazy
w w
hundred miles an hour. An unholy innocent
abroad. Wild parties, girls, drink, drugs.
Uncertainty, loneliness and dreams synthesized
bop. The beats roam America with
¦
irrepressible abandon. The narrator, Sal
Paradise. His fabulous hero, Dean Moriarty.
Problems, wives, problems, stars, longings,
sadness and love
The beat generation', the post-war 'counter-
culture and the youth rebellion' begin with
Jack Kerouac ( a strange, solitary, Catholic
mystic') who was its chronicler - On the Road
is its classic expression, its required text.
The cover, designed by Germano Facetti,
a detail from 'The Athlete's Dream' by
, from the S. C. Johnson Collection
in the Smithsonian Institution,
Washington, D. C.
