Book Reviews of The Mammoth Book of on the Road
Book Review: Eat This Book
Summary: 4 Stars
What a great read! The stories vary from the classic (Steinbeck's Migrant People brought tears to my eyes) to edgy noir to humor to speculative fiction, encompassing film parody, inspiration from 9/11, and more. I found it to be a very diverse read, with more flavors than Baskin-Robbins. Dig in as your cold scoop melts on steaming asphalt.
Summary of The Mammoth Book of on the Road
An enduring symbol of transition, adventure and self-discovery, the lure of the open road is freedom, and travel more exciting than arrival. This collection features journeys along trails carved through dense jungle, or six-lane superhighways, with cops and criminals barrelling down midnight boulevards, summer vacation trips gone wildly wrong, sentimental journeys bringing hope or despair, wandering wise men and post-apocalyptic road warriors.Anthologies Books
