Media Reviews
Christopher Hitchens author of No One Left to Lie To: The Triangulations of William Jefferson Clinton Rock is not what it was, and James Miller follows its decline from radical spontaneity to near-affectless packaging and manipulation. But his riper judgments do not shame his youth, and his vivid and ironic prose transmits pulses of pleasure from Monterey to E Street. Sobering as it turns out to be, this story has a backbeat, and you can blues it.
