Jubilee City - A Memoir at Full Speed

A life story told in discrete, arresting snapshots of despair, resilience, creativity, and hope, Joe Andoe''s literary portrait of his time to date on earth is as powerful as a heavyweight''s hook and as spellbinding as a major crack-up on the opposite side of the highway. It is a testament to a young man''s fortitude and genius and luck that enabled him to survive a life lived wildly out of control; a rocket ride from the sordid depths of self-destruction to the glorious pinnacles of . . . Jubilee City .
