The first major autobiography by a Texas poet, this
noteworthy account traces the life and times of a poet,
publisher, critic, and teacher from his childhood to the
present day. This remarkable life is examined through the
works it produced—25 books in the fields of poetry,
fiction, translation, jazz history, and book reviewing.
Proving that the literary and intellectual life in Texas
far surpasses the state's stereotypes, this record shows
how the poet was instrumental in connecting Texas with many
Latin American writers as well as with a wide world of
music.
