Like nearly all of Kerouac's writing, On The Road is thinly fictionalized autobiography, filled with a cast made of Kerouac's real life friends, lovers, and fellow travelers. Narrated by Sal Paradise, one of Kerouac's alter-egos, On the Road is a cross-country bohemian odyssey that not only influenced writing in the years since its 1957 publication but penetrated into the deepest levels of American thought and culture.]]> 1742 3.72 70293 5336 1957 4 0 false Thu Aug 13 19:13:18 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 13 19:14:04 -0700 2009
