The Dharma Bums (Unabridged) Author: Jack Kerouac Format: Audio Download Audio Length: 7 hours Rating: Price: $9.95       Publisher's Summary: Two ebullient young men are enraged in a passionate search for Dharma, or Truth. Their major adventure is the pursuit of the Zen way, which takes them climbing into the high Sierras to seek the lesson of solitude - a lesson that has a hard time surviving their forays into the pagan groves of San Francisco's Bohemia with its marathon wine-drinking bouts, poetry jam sessions, experiments in "yabyum," and similar nonascetic pastimes. This novel appeared just a year after the author's explosive On the Road put the Beat Generation on the literary map and Kerouac on the best seller lists. The same expansiveness, humor, and contagious zest for life that sparked the earlier novel ignite this one.
