A true-tongued, almost joyous gallows humor permeates the book, a meditation on what it's like to be on the outer edge of boomerhood, on the cusp of official seniority; what it's like to have been so long associated with a youth movement-rock music-yet to no longer be young.\u003ci\u003eAutumn Rhythm\u003c\/i\u003e comes from a man whose work has always been music as much as it's been about it, and who now brings his syncopation of word, sound, and sense to the subject of life itself, as lived and lost: a frank, brilliant, and ultimately poetic contemplation of physical decline, the deaths of friends and family, and the confounding, ever-accelerating changes in our culture.A rant in [Meltzer's] finest and funniest manner, an epic vernacular monologue with stylistic roots in nineteenth-century humorists Bill Nye, Artemus Ward, and Mark Twain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Meltzer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Da Capo Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/22\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 209\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.18w x 0.61d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780306813818\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRichard Meltzer\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of over a dozen books, including \u003ci\u003eA Whore Just Like the Rest\u003c\/i\u003e -- winner of the ASCAP-Deems Taylor Award -- and innumerable articles.
