Synopsis
A heartbreaking, heartwarming, and oddlywhimsical memoir from acclaimed indie rocker Mark Oliver Everett of Eels
Growing up in Virginia, Mark Oliver Everett had an eccentric uringing: left to roam unsupervised with his sister, Liz, while his father, the ground-breaking physicist Hugh Everett, remained distant and obsessed by parallel universes of his own creation. In a short period of time, the author lost his sister to suicide, father to heart failure, and his mother to cancer; but these tragedies became the impetus for his acclaimed music. Everett's memoir is a rich and poignant story of love, death, coming of age, and creative vision.
