Favorite Jack Kerouac book?

lonesome traveler was awesome as well-

but on the road is the best

 

The Dharma Bums...i haven't finished it, but I love it. On the Road is great too. I haven't finshed that one either, cause I started about 10 other books around the same time. Anyway, they're great and as soon as I'm done, I'll read some other Kerouac...

 

I like "Sherlock Holmes" the detective...:bigear:

i love reading kerouac in the summer, it's so inspiring, makes me just wanna get up and go

 

desolation angels

 

Dharma Bums for sure......

 

just finished desolation angels and it is def. depressing as depressing can get...... im just starting visions of gerard anybody read it?


I cant help it everything the man has written I eat it up.... reading what he writes never makes me think or feel better though it tears me up

 

On The Road. Naturally...

 

once again... Dharma Bums, on the road is good but too overrated and Subterraneans is fantastic. Im reading Big Sur right now and its phenomanol so far

 

each and every Jack Kerouac book is my favourite
i've read On the road, Dharma bums, Doctor Sax, Subterraneans and Lonesome traveler so far.. just started Big Sur

 

Wow. I just found this place. I am a HUGE Kerouac fanatic. Funny, I never thought about which ones I like the best. Probably have to say Desolation Angels, Big Sur, Town the and City in a totally different way....

 

the dharma bums

 

On the Road, but im about to start Visions of Cody after reading everyone's response I need to read Dharma Bums

 

Lonesome Traveller. Its much more true to life than his other work and IMO is read by far few people.

 

Never read this one. Guess I'll pick it up next. thanks.

 

You won't regret it, its a great book. I read it quite a few years ago but I found it very charming. On the Road and the more popular books pack a punch and are instantly likable, but this one is really subtly beautiful and I am pretty sure its fully autobiographical.

 

I've only ever read On the Road, and I enjoyed it.

 

If you've read any Kerouac, be sure to read his first novel, "The Town and the City." It's his most novel-like and least beat, back when he was trying to write "proper literature" inspired by his hero Thomas Wolfe and all. It's a good, good read, and hella different than the stuff you might already know and love.

 

On the road of corse and lonesome traveller

 

Dharma Bums is my all time favorite book. When I first read it I felt like I had finally found my people, found my way. I've never felt in tune with any other book like that before or after.
