À propos de cet audio

A 50th anniversary hardcover edition of Kerouac’s classic novel that defined a generation

Few novels have had as profound an impact on American culture as On the Road. Pulsating with the rhythms of 1950s underground America, jazz, sex, illicit drugs, and the mystery and promise of the open road, Kerouac’s classic novel of freedom and longing defined what it meant to be “beat” and has inspired generations of writers, musicians, artists, poets, and seekers who cite their discovery of the book as the event that “set them free.” Based on Kerouac’s adventures with Neal Cassady, On the Road tells the story of two friends whose four cross-country road trips are a quest for meaning and true experience. Written with a mixture of sad-eyed naïveté and wild abandon, and imbued with Kerouac’s love of America, his compassion for humanity, and his sense of language as jazz, On the Road is the quintessential American vision of freedom and hope, a book that changed American literature and changed anyone who has ever picked it up. This hardcover edition commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the first publication of the novel in 1957 and will be a must-have for any literature lover.

Yassss! I do not know any other way to describe how I feel about this book except for Yes Yassss! Will Patton brought Jack Kerouac’s book to life in my ears. I felt excited, confused and exhausted. I enjoyed Dean and his crazy distracted ways so much. I found myself laughing out loud by the things Dean would say. Yassss. Rarely have I listened to a book and felt the need to also read it. With Kerouac’s On the Road, I want to fully absorb it. I want to listen to it. I want to read it and I want to watch it. I want to experience it all over again in all formats. Yassss! Jack you had me at “I ate another apple pie and ice cream; that's practically all I ate all the way across the country, I knew it was nutritious and it was delicious, of course.”

And just a little bit from Dean. Yasss!

“Sal, we gotta go and never stop going 'till we get there.'
'Where we going, man?'
'I don't know but we gotta go.”

Ps. All you one star reviewers crack me up.

Fantastically done!

I tried to read this book, but I could never get into it. But listening to this recording brings the poetry and sadness and beauty of it all to light

A voice the words were written in

Will Parton was a spectacular choice to narrate this tale as his energy was infectious, even of the book itself was a pretentious mountain of garbage. Some of the most detestable characters I’ve ever encountered. This story does not hold up over time.

Patton is outstanding

Amazingly directed and acted, this audiobook truly shows you what this medium of spoken audio can do. This is the only book I've found so far where voice acting added flavour to the story.

This is what audiobooks are meant to be.

Not my thing. Only emotions I got out of it were disgust and pity—and the pity was mostly for side characters.

Narration was great
