THE FIRST FIVE

Henry Rollins

[Literature - Angry]

A collection of Henry Rollins's first five books: High Adventure in the Great Outdoors, Pissing in the Gene Pool, Bang!, Art to Choke Hearts, and One from None. The contents of this book were written all over the world, usually on tour. You get full disclosure of the character building experiences of a young man grinding it out on the independant music circuit. Famine, bitter cold, mean women, crazy women, no women at all...Everyone is alone. No one has real friends. Everyone has doubts about their friendships. Complete trust doesn't come from love. Complete trust comes from desperation. It's a declaration of desperation. In that way we're equal. We're all riding on that lonely train.
