Coal Fire Mind

Coal Fire Mind

Pippa Gwillian
4/5 ( ratings)
Greg Young: for decades, always moving, always moving on. Traveler, seeker, escape artist: from or to Texas, the Navy, Seattle, India, NYC, Korea, Honolulu, Germany. Passionately into stonework, surfing, alcohol, drumming, meditation, THC, teaching, Santeria. Fits and starts; restarts. Countless departures, arrivals. Moments of debauchery; of heartfelt appreciation; of enlightenment. Recidivist heart-breaker, breaker of his own heart. Self-saboteur. But, in the arc of Coal Fire's resolutely confessional telling, cleansed by the life-saving rigor of endeavoring to shape true narrative. To let story hold him accountable. And now, age fifty-something, so very far from where he began, composing this story on the windswept coast of Wales. WALES!--of all the places he's been, could have been, could still be. At long last home, if restless still. But, for this redemptive moment, saved by his art. And by love: received; given. Thomas Farber, author of The Face of the Deep
