Summary

There is a light and there is a darkness. There is, also, a space in between. Homer Antumbra inhabited this no-man’s-land. In his flickering flame of a life, he shined the light and lived with the darkness. His life and work changed the craft of songwriting, both showing what a song could be, and hinting at where it could go. His work redefined a genre before shattering any attempts at categorization. Shining the Light is the first in-depth look into the man, the myth, the music of Homer Antumbra, ensuring that the light still shines.

This was so realistic I was googling to find this

Homer Antombra like mini musicians lives life like he doesn’t have the right answers to life‘s questions, but right songs as it is inside is further reaching than any normal man. He is going through drug addiction alcoholism women ET see and has fought many battles. I think the thing that makes him great is he continues to fight or as long that is necessary. I totally enjoyed this book and absolutely thought Homer for the bigger portion of the book was a real musician. I also think the book wouldn’t have been as good edit been narrated by someone else The guy narrating made a distinction that made it very clear if he was the reporter the musician or someone else. I really enjoyed this book it was such an original plot when it comes to literary fiction and it’s a book I highly recommend!
