Otis Lee Crenshaw: I Blame Society

by RichHall (Author)

Synopsis

'My Old Man's name was Jack Daniels Crenshaw. No surprise what he liked to drink. As a very small child I remember teething - cryin' out savagely for relief. Eventually he would appear over my crib and rub Jack Daniels on his gums until he fell asleep.' Married six times, all to women named Brenda, Otis Lee Crenshaw's bourbon-fuelled odyssey takes him from the high mountains of East Tennessee to the bottom of the music charts. A man not above faking his own death to sell more records, this is his not quite true story of romance, recidivism, country music, and an unshakeable belief in Marriage at First Sight. PRAISE FOR OTIS LEE CRENSHAW: 'Excruciatingly funny' Guardian 'An inspired comic creation ...unmissable' Independent
