A story of becoming an artist, by the godmother of rock'n'roll: the
National Book Award-winning author of Just Kids Patti Smith 'A poet
of distinction' New York Times 'Glorious' NPR 'Rare and ferocious'
Salon 'Shockingly beautiful' New York Magazine Everything contained
in this little book is true, and written just like it was. The
writing of it drew me from my strange torpor and I hope that in
some measure it will fill the reader with a vague and curious
joy... In this small, luminous memoir, the National Book
Award-winner Patti Smith revisits the most sacred experiences of
her early years, with truths so vivid they border on the surreal.
The author entwines her childhood self - and its 'clear,
unspeakable joy' - with memories both real and envisioned from her
twenties on New York's MacDougal Street, the street of cafes.
Woolgathering was completed in Michigan, on Patti Smith's 45th
birthday and originally published in a slim volume from Raymond
Foye's Hanuman Books. Twenty years later, Bloomsbury is proud to
present it in a much augmented edition, featuring writing that was
omitted from the book's first printing, along with new photographs
and illustrations.
