Review:
Slash Coleman does justice to his subject—and then some ... by turns darkly comic, side-splittingly funny, and poignant. (New York Journal of Books)
Coleman exhibits flashes of humor and thoughtful introspection. Passages analyzing his mother’s reasons for hiding her Jewish identity prove especially moving. ... An entertaining examination of the plight of an artist’s progeny. (Kirkus Reviews)
Slash Coleman has de-gentrified my soul. (Gary Shteyngart, New York Times–bestselling author of Super Sad True Love Story)
Slash Coleman has a fresh point of view, an original story, and tons of style. The Bohemian Love Diaries is a fun, raucous read by a fantastic storyteller. (Mishna Wolff, bestselling author of I'm Down)
Coleman comes alive on the page in this memoir about the bizarre and beautiful life of a free spirit and artist who navigates through life with his heart. It’s easy to fall in love with him as a reader, and I can’t decide if I wished I was on the journey with him or if I’m completely content to simply read about it and enjoy the laugh. One thing is for sure, Evel Knievel would be proud. (Ophira Eisenberg, host of NPR's Ask Me Another and author of Screw Everyone)
Slash’s endearing and idiosyncratic memoir feels wonderfully intimate, like he’s whispering his life’s greatest and most heartbreaking moments right into your ear. A lively, wonderful read. (Mara Altman, author of Thanks for Coming)
