About the book
This book was a natural progression for me - my first being The Subterraneans followed by On The Road both by Jack Kerouac and then this book Off The Road. An interesting read, humorous, startling and sad in places. Who was the very larger than life Neal? - read this book, a fascinating character. What did I learn from this book - the art of Stillness. Thank you Carolyn. Eve
