Description
This semi-autobiographical collection of stories offers a unique glimpse into the life of a musician, recalling childhood and young adulthood in post-World War II suburbia. The tales are presented in a conversational, feverish tone, punctuated by moments of clarity and introspection.
Blending elements of memoir, personal essay, and fiction, the stories resist categorization, instead forging their own logic and mythological history. The result is a deeply personal and thought-provoking work that stands alone, unencumbered by genre or convention.
Written by one of the most influential guitarists in music history, this book is a fascinating and unconventional exploration of the human experience.
