Title: A great early compendium.
Product review: Though not technically his first five books (you'll have to do some serious research), this is an EXCELLENT compendium of the early works. I always suggest that people begin with "The Portable Henry Rollins" which is a reader of various "middle period" works, and then proceed to this which comprises "early period" works.This stuff is not for the faint of heart. You must be in a frame of mind to experience someone ELSE'S feelings and pain and be able to reflect on them and analyze them for yourself.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
