This has to be the best write-up on this page I’ve read, I feel like I’m on the road right now just reading it. This “road” which has been written about in several ways in other books doesn’t look as good as it does in this account; all of the variables that need to be mentioned seem to be represented in this work. From what is being said here it’s easy to see this is a real report of someone who cut it loose and experienced all the rain, wind, and loneliness of a person who saw what he wanted elsewhere and took a chance. That there have been other people who have gone this way before who only feel free when they live like this and can only think straight when they’ve escaped… This is a fix you can’t get everywhere, this rare illegal substance of the lonesome-traveler state-of-mind-and-blues the author had the experience and skill to record for us—the precious free space of being alone and being adrift with no final address.
Been Down so long it seems like up to me OUR LADY OF THE FLOWERS- poet as Bandido The MerseyBeats. Cavern Club. Lord I was born a rambling man Down and out in Paris & London. The yellow brick road leads to the Emerald City & were not in Kansas anymore Toto - were in Amsterdam @ a ganja bar in the red Light districting &Genet has just been released from prison
That is such a warm and positive response to my review – very uplifting for the writer! I’m glad that you picked up on the sense of movement in the notice we published. I think you would really enjoy the Jeff Young book.
