Book Reviews of Visions of Cody
Book Review: Jack's top book
Summary: 5 Stars
Jack's subject doesn't change . Visions of Cody is the same as his earlier book,On The Road. The difference is this is a book of greater depth and complexity than any of his other work. The beat writers were all interested in the art of painting,jazz and movies. This book was written as a movie scenario.I don't mean he wanted to become a movie . But that film influenced his vision of his experiences.This work is a book of greater sophistication than the earlier study of his friend.On The Road is a good read, Visions of Cody is a fascinating read.All of the criticism of Kerouac is that it is subjective, but in this book I find that what counts is Jack's command of the formal properties of writing, structure and inventive organization. The best book by Kerouac
