" It was one of the most beautifully written books I'd ever read. Despite it being fiction, I know some of what happened in the book happened in real life. It was heartbreaking, but inspiring, too, to read about it. It put a lot in perspective for me. It was simply one of the best books I've ever read. Johnson's history of being a poet definitely made sense. This isn't a book of poetry, but he writes with such fluidity that it is only obvious. "
