Welcome back to the stacks. It’s Aquarium Drunkard’s Book Club, our irregular gathering of recent (or not so recent) recommended reading. In this month’s stack: melting some winter ice with Beth Lesser's definitive '80s Jamaican Dancehall coffee table tome, Larry Charles' dangerous comedy memoir, the undersung dean of American pulp and grit-lit, Charles Willieford, Haruki Murakami's anecdote-infused biographies of over fifty jazz musicians, and a uncategorizable work that Thurston Moore describes as “akin to a ‘lost’ recording by the Velvet Underground . . .
Only the good shit. Aquarium Drunkard is powered by its patrons. Keep the servers humming and help us continue doing it by pledging your support.
