Imagery



Soon it got dusk, a grapy dusk, a purple dusk over tangerine groves and long melon fields; the sun the color of pressed grapes, slashed with burgundy red, the fields the color of love and Spanish mysteries. I stuck my head out the window and took deep breaths of the fragrant air. It was the most beautiful of all moments. - Jack Kerouac, On The Road





Seriously loving this book right now. Not that much time to read last week, both boys sick with tonsilitis and Sammy has a chest infection.  But I'm loving this book.

Before I started, I was listening to audio of Kerouac reading other works of his.  I have his voice in my head. I love it there.
