SpokenVerse | On the Road by Jack Kerouac Chapter 1 (read by Tom O'Bedlam) @SpokenVerse | Uploaded September 2014 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Jack Kerouac's On the Road has been called the Bible of the Beat Generation. He invented the word "beat" - some think it means "beatific" or something similar, other think it means "beaten". This reading is an experiment to find out if I can just read aloud, with no serious editing or processing.

Usually if I let anything through that contains minor errors I get a lot of messages pointing out these errors which I'm well aware of anyway, but which make no real difference to understanding. The text is there - you can read too. Try reading it aloud - it's very difficult not to make the occasional fluff. If I can still attract an audience then it will be easier to read more stuff.
