This book portrays The
Beat Generation and it inability to comply with society's standards.
I. Jack leaves his home for work related purposes but instead ends up traveling and with Neal and being irresponsible. Society would have rather wanted for him to stay with his work ethic, get his job done and continue on with his responsibilities. Refusal to accept society’s norms.
II. Neal has a lack of social standing and does whatever he wants whenever he wants. He rejects authority along with Jack. Jack takes advantage of his night job as a police officer and Neal has a history of offences. Thieving.
III. Neal has no moral code. He puts himself first and only thinks of his needs and not the feelings of others. He left his friend in a random hospital in Mexico so he could go find girls rather than take care and watch over him. Complete lack of responsibility. Constantly wanting to find “it”, no matter the cost.
V. Drugs, alcohol, sex. Anti-conservative. Mentions of marijuana and alcohol abuse. Against monogamous sex.
