Title: Finally a Mimi and Richard Farina biography!
Review: This is one of the best books on the folk era ever written. Mr.Hajdu burns through the nostalgia and brings to life something more valuble.....living, breathing human beings who happen to have made some very lasting music. The book obviously fills a void by covering the lives of Richard and Mimi Farina...two frequently overlooked artists. The book is so well-written that Richard's tragic demise still mangages to shock and sadden the reader even though most know the sad tale. The book is especially poignant and timely as Mimi Farina is battling an illness. It must be satisfying to know that what she helped create, so many years ago, is getting some well-deserved attention.
