Question # 2

“The road” in this novel represents anew pathway towards a different perspective regarding Sal’s uninteresting yet troublesome lifestyle. The symbolism of “the road” interprets Sal’s new journey as well as experimentation into Dean’s exciting and jaunty life experience. For Sal’s point of view regarding symbolism, he is struggling through experiences of life itself. In simpler terms, he is struggling the complexity of undergoing through adolescence and maturity difficulty. Whilst Dean’s point of view, “the road” is very self-explanatory the fact he’s always on the road meaning he’s always on the move, rather adventurous. Sal strives for that sort of lifestyle rather than living his, which envy brings into play.
