Jesus and John Wayne

The introduction alone is a tour de force. The rest of the book a matter of fact laying out of the themes and actors already familiar to my tribe but never assembled to elicit this response. There is scant first person exposition, which I find remarkable. Ultimately “Layla” plays during the entire final chapter and recent events, post-publishing, continue on the theme and I predict the song will keep playing as we continue to learn the implications of this particular brand of masculinity.
