A review by cpalisa
The Financial Lives of the Poets by Jess Walter

4.0

Solid 4 stars. I'm normally not much of a fan of lyrical writing but this one really hooked me. I listened to it on audio and it was read by the author - which I normally don't like - but he knew exactly how to read this to emphasize what he wanted. I may not have loved it as much had a read the physical book, though I plan on buying this one as a keeper. Great writing, bittersweet at times and laugh out loud funny at times.
