José Arnaud josearnaudjr — What a disappointment. I love me some Talking Heads, and somehow imagined that Byrne would have something interesting to say outside of music. Instead, this book was the equivalent of a middle-aged film star suddenly deciding to record an album - he may secretly dream of being a pop star, but that doesn't mean he should foist that dream on the rest of us. I agree with Byrne that bikes are cool and that riding in cities is scary in current conditions. I agree with him about Bush, and foreign policy, and how important art is. But it's like he just wrote down a bunch of undeveloped thought-embryos, instead of thinking through and analyzing his position and giving us something worth reading. I am, however, jealous of all the wonderful places he gets to travel, and the interesting people he gets to meet, and the creative life he leads. And I still love me some Talking Heads!

Saleem Rehman sarpopol9c7a — I read this as a little kid and was blown away (even did a dramatic adaptation for my grade school -- nerd), so I was curious to see what I'd think as an adult. The book has beautiful moments in which it discusses the healing power of love, the potential of our weaknesses to become strengths, and the lived nature of music. The main action of the novel -- the purpose for the journey -- is over before one knows it. Could this be a narrative flaw? Could this be an acknowledgment of the novel's sequel status? Or could this be a case in which the journey was more important than its endgame?
