Paul Bowles on Music edited by Irene Herrmann and Timothy Mangan

Paul Bowles on Music was edited by Irene Herrmann, Paul Bowles' musical heir, and Timothy Mangan. In this wonderfully engaging and informative collection we hear the voice of a different Paul Bowles. Writing on a wide range of subjects―jazz, film music, classical music, popular music, ethnic music―he is direct, opinionated, incisive, analytical, humorous, and passionate." ―Millicent Dillon
