A powerful poetry collection. I haven't read any of Jimmy's prose but this is a really good gateway to his legacy and body of work. Unflailing in telling the truth.

So bold. Juicy, filled with yearning and jealousy.

It's a song as simple as that. Amazingly metaphorical and lyrical. Shuttles between the anger and helplessness of a poor man's despair when he comes across a source for breakthrough. Constantly manages in tossing between black and white of several aspects. Brilliant writing.

Amazing. Melancholic. Feels like a narrative. A great American novel.
