Not what I expected, which was musical reminiscences. Turns out the book is musings on life and God. Interesting to get a view of what the world seemed like viewed from the perspective of a privileged white English liberal artistic male in the mid 1960s. And although I think I would have liked the man, and our views and concerns overlap, this is probably a book better pulped than read.

Meandering and philosophical. Felt I was losing steam until hit almost exactly halfway and then it picked up, really enjoyed 2nd half
