Totally dry of ideas or lacking energy to go where to go. I am what they call a nomadic worker and I have this period. Everytime I go through it I have a shot of On the Road and it jolts me back to life - it simply reassures how beautiful this life is.

Do not expect a novel or "character development" out of this. This is not a novel. It is a fluid, vivid flow of writing that is most likely to influence you in whatever you do.

and I would never take people who outrightly tell you not to read without knowing your tastes seriously.(less)
