On The Road - Jack Kerouac

One Sentence Summary:
All the angst of 1950 Americana captured on the page.
Review:
This is an american classic, though in my opinion is a bit weak to be in that category. This is more a piece of art than a standard novel and has to be read as such. The prose is unique, it has a rhythm all its own. If you are a teenager you will probably love the protagonist, if you are an adult you will probably think he is a self centred shit who takes advantage of everything way the eff too much. I recommend it only if you really want to read it... there is nothing I can really compare it to.
6/10
