Summary
"This autobiographical novel continues the adventures of the (older but certainly not mellower) wandering beatnik from 'On the Road.' For a narrator it contains extraordinary difficulties, for the writing flies off into inebriated, overly long sentences that reflect, describe, or just babble forward in a kind of free association. To keep such passages flowing while making sense out of them is no mean feat. Tom Parker pulls it off, erring only infrequently in his interpretation
