"Here is Tom Waits in all his mischievous splendor. From a New Yorker "Talk of the Town" in 1976 to Vanity Fair's "Proust Questionnaire" in 2004; from album reviews by Luc Santo and David Fricke to conversations with Jim Jarmusch, Elvis Costello, and the Onion; from a recent profile in GQ to "20 Questions" in Playboy and poems by Charles Bukowski that perfectly capture the Waitsian world, this is the must-have book for every fan of the artist Beck has described as a "luminary," and for music fans everywhere."--Jacket.
