5.0 out of 5 stars
Forgettng the Garbage Bush years, March 26, 2008
This review is from: Songs of Insurgency (Perfect Paperback)
Okay, so I think the reason this book works for me is because I moved to Boston (age 23) the week of September 11th. More or less, my adult life has been the Garbage Bush years and trying to disconnect from warfare, paranoia and ignorance.
This book is for anybody who was against the war from the beginning. It's starting to grow out of its tragically hip phase. It's sex after the three basic positions are used. It's city people with country origins. It replaces the bible in cheap hotel rooms. It tastes strange but it costs less. It's drugs you haven't heard of before. It's in the leather pouch that guy who does voodoo wears around his neck. They talk about it on the lower end of the AM spectrum early each morning.
