Five stars for emotional complexity. Like a lot of other reviewers, I came away from this book feeling disgusted by Zevon. He was just terrible to everyone he loved, through his entire life. Consistently abusive and sometimes to an actually criminal ...more |

of
Big Baby: On Endings, Beginnings, and an Interdimensional Cat:
"I told a friend I was reading this, and they said, “oh! He’s so funny!” And I had to say, “he is! But this book isn’t funny at all.” It’s actually something much better, I’ll call it a balm for the souls of anyone who came of age in the 90s, perhaps "

“The world needs people in touch with their humanity, their mortality, and place in the natural world. And for a million reasons, the world needs people who know how to have a good time for the hell of it. People who want to run through the hills because it’s breathtaking and swim in the cold ocean because it makes them feel alive. People that push their limits because it provides a good buzz and who aren’t afraid to sail through a storm because it makes for a good story later. So protect that sense of meaning - the world needs you.”
