I lol’ed reading about your encounter with him at the pizza place, haha. I can picture you so perfectly! Also I am currently reading Demon Copperhead and finding it better than I anticipated. Sometimes if a book is so buzzy I don’t want to try it. But I’ve found this one to be worth the hype.

Oh and for tv shows this may not be up your alley, but I’m watching the 10 part series on the Chicago Bulls, The Last Dance, that came out a few years ago. It’s on Netflix. There’s great archival footage and with Michael Jordan’s NC connection maybe you’d like it too?

Allison's writing is so honest and revealing, without regret. I guess all of us have had musical epiphanies that we don't understand at the time, but that play a permanent note in our sensorium at a critical time in our development (whether it's in youth or beyond). Thank you, Allison, for sharing yours and describing it in such superb prose. Your stories grab the reader from the beginning and make it impossible to set aside without finishing. I look forward to more.
