Book Reviews of The Soloist (Movie Tie-In): A Lost Dream, an Unlikely Friendship, and the Redemptive Power of Music

Book Review: A Troubled Life
Summary: 4 Stars

This book is an interesting glimpse into the life of the mentally ill, homeless living on the streets of the big city. Although it reads more like a Sunday newspaper magazine article, it's importance lies in the eye-opening glimpse into street life and how people survive on the streets. I liked book, didn't love it.
