Book Reviews of Desolation Angels

Book Review: Desolation Angels is a marvel of beat mystique.
Summary: 5 Stars

Kerouac's travels are chartered in this sweet selection of jazz and sex and cannot be criticized as any less than the ultimate experience of the nomad sociolagy. This novel is laughter. This novel is tears. This novel seeks conventialism and repriamands it with a phycedelic explosion of the senses. Kerouac's writing is complete ecstacy comparable to the garden of eden and unrelenquished nirvana

Book Review: great and warm story
Summary: 5 Stars

Desolation Angels is a sentimental story which takes place in the time leading up to On The Road being released. To me, this is a great story of adventure and personal reflection for Kerouac. I won't rant, but my favorite part takes place with William Burroughs in Tangiers while he is working on his masterpiece Naked Lunch. Must buy for Kerouac fans.

Book Review: This is one of the best book's I've ever read!
Summary: 5 Stars

Desolation Angels is by far my favorite Keruoac book. I own eight other Keruoac books, and this was one of the quickest reads, most emotional, spriritual, honest books you'll ever have a chance of experiencing. This book is so well written it should be mandatory college level reading for creative writing classes.

Book Review: didn't order this online but i do own it...
Summary: 4 Stars

i really liked this book after the second reading. for some reason i read this before "on the road". once i came back to it after reading nearly every other kerouac book i liked it much more, and thought that it was really more of a realization to "on the road" and filled in a bunch of the gaps.

Book Review: absolute perfection in a novel!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

i've found myself somewhat "adicted" to Kerouac since i began reading his work and this book definetly calmed my cravings. I've recomended it over and over to friends of mine because kerouac has such a unique way with words and beautiful ways of expressing himself.
