Tom Waits may just be what the Daily Telegraph calls him: "the greatest entertainer on Planet Earth." He is also a shape-shifter who, over a span of almost four decades, has restlessly transformed his songwriting and persona not to suit the times but his own whims. Journalists intent upon cracking Waits's code are more likely to come out of an interview with anecdotes about the weather, insects, or medieval medicine. This book presents a selection of more than 50 interviews in which Waits shares something truly unique, delivered in language as poetic, potent, and haunting as his lyrics. Taken together they present a de facto autobiography of a notoriously guarded artist.
