Description


My Rock and Roll Girl is the latest effort from the author of My Cleveland Story and A Poem on a Bar Room Wall. "I've always been a fan of short novels, books you can read in a weekend or on a couple of days at the beach…Books like The Call of the Wild from my ninth grade English teaching days, or The Sun Also Rises which I reread every year. Remember how popular The Bridges of Madison County was when it first came out? A great short novel...I also grew up in a household of four teenagers all with great record collections, and all of us grew up going to high school dances and then music clubs like the Agora, and experiencing the excitement when someone like Springsteen or the J. Geils Band or the Jukes were coming to town."
