A must-read treasure, December 24, 2012By Henrietta Lala "herbalwiz" (St. Martinville, LA) - See all my reviewsAmazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Blackbird: A Boy Meets The Devil For the First Time (Kindle Edition)I've been reading about 70 years and Blackbird is one of those rare nuggets of pure gold in a whole mountain of clay . It plays out like the blues, full of riffs and bass and gravel that spin themselves into a mirror of soul not ashamed to get down and dirty and come up dragging us into a light we refused to open our eyes to before. Don't let the stomp and shuffle and guffaws fool you into thinking it's not about you, you ain't gonna get off that easy. I was in Gadsden Alabama for about three months in 1958, and he's not telling any lies. It was my first experience with deep southern segregationist views. A great morality tale told by a masterful and powerful writer about a very unique character.About this short memoir:I lost a big battle this morning.The battle was whether to stay in bed and take it easy all day, or tell you about Bill Klase and Jack Swift.About a wonderful moment we had together in the sun...And the worst beating I ever got in my life.I lost the struggle and got up and am now typing this.There is a memory in my mind I cherish and will cherish until they say, "He’s dead," and pull the sheet over my head.It's not the beating. It's something that happened right before the beating.It is this:It is the Summer of 1972, and I am with two of the most wonderful guys I have ever met. It is Florida, St. Petersburg, a beautiful, sunny day. I am at Bill Klase’s house, and Jack Swift is there. We are standing next to Jack’s shiny new sports car, and Bill is smiling, and I am smiling, and Jack Swift is smiling.All is well and wonderful in the world for that one moment...From the Author of:"The Killing of Train-Man Brown."A Top 100 Free for Kindle eStoryRelated Storiy:"Jump Through The Window:Advice to a Beautiful Young WomanFrom an Aging Old Fool."
