This blog is about reading, writing, and life. Check out my other blog, Savvier Savvy! Which is entirely about ME. Thursday, August 5, 2010. On the Road" by Jack Kerouac. Oh, where to begin. It took me way too long to read this book, and way too much effort. I didn't enjoy it at all, and think it is among some of the dullest books I have ever read. Seriously, what is there to like about the story? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I read a lot. View my complete profile.

The journey of the narrator involves sexual experiences with many men in his life. We don't get to know much about these men; instead we get to know more about the narrator as his character is explored through his experiences with the men. These experiences, instead of enriching his life, torment him further with shame. I read a lot.

It was a quick read, and I'm glad I didn't waste too much time on it. It did teach me a thing or two about writing, and it was nice to read something heavily plot-driven once in a while. What book is worth the time if it doesn't help you to grow? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I read a lot. View my complete profile.
