on the road pt. 3

on the road seems to have slowed down the characters are finding out what they want in life and how they want to achieve it. they are also learning about the horrid side of nature and how it takes a strong effect on how they are to live their lives. by the cop writing them a speeding tickit it shows that they are not going to get anywhere in life by just running from one place to another. The characters figure this out around this point of the book. Sal however seems to be behind his friends like dean in the pursuit of the answer at to what he wants. Dean starts to understand religion and its basic meaning, he finds something he can rely on while sal is trying to figure out how he is going to get money. Lee also helps to show them how life is, their friend carol marx is another friend whom found what he wanted in life and is trying to help his friends, he helps dean by telling him that leaving his family behind was wrong.

the book is much better than the grapes of wrath to me the details is perfect i can imagine the whole story in my head instead of meaniingless details, however there are parts of the book where he rambles on but then the good parts of the book makes up for it. the mind of the author is twisted and seems to be a great way as to why the books take its weird turns.
