Synopsis
Another autobiographical novel from Kerouac, THE DHARMA BUMS, encompasses the ideals of freedom set forth by Whitman and Thoreau, with Buddhism thrown in for good measure. Focusing on the friendship between Ray Smith (modelled on Kerouac) and Japhy Ryder (Gary Snyder), the Buddhist sub-theme is evoked in Smith and Ryder's wish to introduce the concept of Dharma to others. Acknowledged by Kerouac scholars to be a more mature work than ON THE ROAD, THE DHARMA BUMS is called "perhaps the most representative expression of the Beat sensibility in a work of fiction" by Sue L. Kimball in "Critical Survey of Long Fiction."

Industry Reviews
"Whatever one may think of the soundness of his philosophy, which at the moment seems to be Zen Buddhism, Jack Kerouac is a writer who cannot be charged with dullness. 'The Dharma Bums' is as disorderly, ungrammatical, and readable as his 'On the Road', and while it contains less gaudy misbehavior it offers a better alternative to the gray flannel suit than the prisoner's uniform."
Atlantic Monthly - Phoebe Adams (10/19/1958)

"Kerouac can describe a simple supper of pea soup and wild mushrooms, or even a spartan repast prepared from those little plastic bags of dried food carried by seasoned mountaineers, in a way to make your mouth water. He is at his very very best in describing the smells, sounds, sights and general feeling of walking a Western trail. In his often brilliant descriptions of nature one is aware of exhilarating power and originality..."
New York Times Book Review - Nancy W. Ross (10/05/1958)
