Description
Jack Kerouac’s classic novel about friendship, the search for meaning, and the allure of nature
First published in 1958, a year after On the Road put the Beat Generation on the map, The Dharma Bums stands as one of Jack Kerouac's most powerful and influential novels. The story focuses on two ebullient young Americans - mountaineer, poet, and Zen Buddhist Japhy Ryder, and Ray Smith, a zestful, innocent writer - whose quest for Truth leads them on a heroic odyssey, from marathon parties and poetry jam sessions in San Francisco's Bohemia to solitude and mountain climbing in the High Sierras.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"In [On the Road] Kerouac's heroes were sensation seekers; now they are seekers after truth...the novel often attains a beautiful dignity, and builds towards a moving climax." (The Chicago Tribune)
"In his often brilliant descriptions of nature one is aware of exhilarating power and originality...the entire cast of characters is presented with that not unrefreshing blend of naivete and sophistication that seems to be this author's forte." (The New York Times Book Review)
"Full of sparkling descritions of landscape and weather, light falling through trees, the smell of snow, the motion of animals...Jack Kerouac is a writer who cannot be charged with dullness." (The Atlantic)

Wonderful narration by Ethan Hawke of a marvellous book
This is a beautiful, loving tribute to Jack’s friends, literary and otherwise. Nature is a major character, perhaps the main character. He will take you to mountains, forests, deserts, seashores in all their various and ever-changing moods. I wept at his descriptions of a camp meal and a warm fire at the end of a gruelling day of mountain climbing. I’m getting old and my trekking days are long over, but he brought back the utter weariness and simple satisfaction so perfectly. The stars, seen through his eyes, are spellbinding. Ethan’s reading is warm, expressive and, to use a favourite word of Jack’s, tender.
