A tremendous work blending the kicks, sex, drugs and raw excitement of On the Road with the sweetness and spirituality of Dharma Bums. You'll recognize all the real life players as Jack alternates between the fast times of New York and San Francisco and the isolation of Desolation Peak in the High Sierras where he served as a fire watcher in a cabin for three months in 1956. Packed with Jack's French-Canadian Catholic roots as well as his later Zen Buddhist beliefs, "Desolation Angels" is a powerful book. Readers' Reviews: Paperback, 366 pages
