Title: Jazz as a way to express thoughts, fellings & fears
Review: First of all the narrator: it's not a common 1st person, the story is narrateded by one of his three personality, the one which mediates between his unsureness and fragility and his violence and madness. Sex is the absolout protagonist, and it is shown as an obsession which cannot be fronted consciously. If you expect to find in this book the description of a mystic athomosphere in which artists find inspiration, well that's the wrong book. the musician is presented as a nevrotic and frustrated person, always fighting against the world outside. Mingus describes himself truly, he does not make anything to make people sympatize for him. Jazz is often put ina corner, but it's always present as a vital juice,as a way to live the life, and it can't give always satisfaction. following the steps of the "Duke", "Baron" Mingus faces happiness and sadness, sex and drugs(for him the food) and most of times he's the looser.
