I usually love characters who don't focus solely on being successful in the American sense - having a big house, a nice car, and a great job - and Sal is no exception. Sure, Sal wouldn't mind being rich, but that isn't his main goal in life. And I know Sal is based off of Kerouac, but I still appreciate how he relates so well to Kerouac.

  1. These two chapter were especially interesting, as we finally saw how Sal actually is, meaning instead of just traveling some where he is actually being socially normal, a side that has not been as shown to us. Last thing is that how Sal himself describes the split, and how he is becoming a beat, and leaving Carlo Marx and Dean behind.
