3.0 out of 5 stars Disjointed and hard to follow, January 2, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Swing Under the Nazis: Jazz as a Metaphor for Freedom (Paperback)
Zwerin combines the story gathered from his interviews with jazz musicians and fans with the outer story of his own experiences researching and interviewing for the book. Consequently, the time line jumps back and forth from the 1930s and 40s to the 1980s, often with confusing transitions, or none at all. He often inserts one story into the middle of another, making it hard to follow whom he's talking about. If I weren't so interested in the topic, the book's general disorganization would not incline me to keep reading.
