"Even though it doesn't chronologically follow On the Road, I kinda see this as the direct spiritual sequel to that book. In many ways it's very similar to the Road, but it's more steeped in the philosophy of Zen Buddhism or at least in Jack's enthusiastic and wild interpretation of it, and perhaps also in the loneliness that was to follow him and grew to more extensive dimensions during his later years. Lovely and energetic."
