^#smrgSAHAF The Dharma Bums -

Two ebullient young men search for Truth the Zen way: from marathon wine-drinking bouts, poetry jam sessions, and “yabyum” in San Francisco's Bohemia to solitude in the high Sierras and a vigil atop Desolation Peak in Washington State. Published just a year after On the Road put the Beat Genaration on the map, The Dharma Bums is sparked by Kerouac's expansiveness, humor and a contagious zest for life. (Arka Kapaktan)
