I really enjoyed this book. A struggling artist in New York City so you get to read about the whole art scene in NYC as well as living out of his van and all the odd things that seem to go along with all this. Also some of what inspires his art. You realize that he really does have a gift and seems to realize that he needs to work at this as well. The older artist that sublet his studio to him for a few months seems to have provided some of a wake up call to the younger artist--stop living out of your van and become a serious artist, also implied I think is to stop wasting your time selling books to make a few dollars. The time wasted doing that should be put to his craft. It seems like by the end he has come to realize this but you as the reader get to take it from there.
There are no copies in PBS so I will post the book and I would expect it to be requested at some point.
