"A provocative, intellectual memoir" ("USA Today")-from a
remarkable new literary voice.
Growing up, Thomas Chatterton Williams knew he loved three things
in life: his parents, literature, and the intoxicating hip-hop
culture that surrounded him. For years, he managed to juggle two
disparate lifestyles, "keeping it real" in his friends' eyes and
studying for the SATs under his father's strict tutelage-until it
all threatened to spin out of control. Written with remarkable
candor and emotional depth, "Losing My Cool" portrays the allure
and danger of hip-hop culture with the authority of a true fan
who's lived through it all, while demonstrating the saving grace of
literature and the power of the bond between father and son.
