Book Reviews of The Portable Henry Rollins
Book Review: A Look Inside an Interesting Man
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is an excellent compilation of the works of Henry Rollins. As a longtime reader of his books, I should mention that his writing style is direct, raw, and at times disturbing. Don't let this scare you. This book is worth your time and money.
The Portable Henry Rollins contains poems, 3 short stories, an essay entitled "The Iron", journal entries, and reflections from a man raised in the urban streets of Washington D.C.
At times, passages can be brutal and intense, but Henry will always make you think after setting the book down. He has a distinct honesty about him that is difficult to put into words, especially when commentating on death, feeling alienated, dating, and introversion.
I genuinely want to meet this man someday. I bet conversations with him are straight up knockouts.
