{"product_id":"most-likely-to-die-hilary-sideris-9780692227695","title":"Most Likely to Die","description":"\"Writing in the voice of a rock and roll icon like Keith Richards is an incredible risk, but Hilary Sideris proves up to the task. 'Most Likely to Die' is a romp. With each poem's series of couplets like a guitar tab, her fingering is spot on -- she hits all the notes, and dishes out some wicked riffs.\" -- Gerry LaFemina, author of \"Steampunk\" and \"Vanishing Horizon\" \u003cbr\u003e \"You needn't give a toss about Keith Richards or his autobiography to love Hilary Sideris's 'Most Likely To Die.' Each poem is a stand-alone vignette, with the lasting resonance of a haiku. But the cumulative power of this volume is visceral. These poems, one after another, each as rich as a blues 78, have attitude while still being tender. Covering the full arc of Richards's life, from wartime Britain to Altamont and other crossroads, these poems exemplify how a precise image or anecdote can make an everyman out of an icon.\" -- Steve Koenig, Editor of \"Acoustic Levitation\" \u003cbr\u003e \"WOW. Where does one begin? As a jazzman of the same generation, on a similar path, and the designated driver for several stoned-out peers, to and from the famous Altamont concert, I find these poems ring many distant and familiar bells. Earthy and scathingly honest reflections on the Rolling Stones' interactions with substances, one another and their early musical influences, this is a clear and concise portal into their lives and processes of creating the music we've come to know and love.\" -- Ron McClure, Bassist \u003cbr\u003e Published by Poets Wear Prada, Hoboken, NJ\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hilary Sideris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0692227695\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780692227695\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Poets Wear Prada\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/05\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 68\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.14d","brand":"Hilary Sideris","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44302075134207,"sku":"9780692227695","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d98bc04e-8bcf-4661-98e4-fbf88df4d42e.jpg?v=1695159374","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/most-likely-to-die-hilary-sideris-9780692227695","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
