任何一部美国当代文学史,都会提到杰克·凯鲁亚克的长篇小说《在路上》,提到这本书的成书过程,提到书中的四个流浪汉;萨尔、狄恩、卡洛和李铁牛。作者根据自己和友人1943年至1950年间在美国、墨西哥一带流浪的经历,描述了他们四人在流浪之路上的酗酒、吸毒和对异端性爱的身体力行。据说凯鲁亚克写作此书只花了三周时间。他把一大卷白纸装上打字机,想到哪儿就写到哪儿,行云流水般地自发创作,不假思索。某些批评家已经提出,《在路上》是一部糟 Any American history of contemporary literature refers to Jack Kerouac’s novel On the Road, referring to the book’s process of making a book, to the four bums in the book; Sal, Dean, Carlo and Lee Tau cattle. Based on the wandering experiences of myself and my friends from 1943 to 1950 in the United States and Mexico, the author described the four of them practicing alcohol abuse, drug abuse and heterosexual sex on the wandering path. It is said that it took only three weeks for Kerouac to write this book. He put a large roll of white paper on a typewriter, where he thought of where to write, and creatively acting like a cloud of water without thinking. Some critics have suggested that “on the road” is a bad one
