Beschreibung
An exploration of musical legacy, Overlook: A Rock and Roll Fable delves into the mysteries of intuitive talent and creation. It is a dance between art and appreciation, between star and fan. It is a chronicle of the last journey of a fictionalized incarnation of the great singer Richard Manuel, of The Band, as he travels back to his adopted home of Woodstock. There he encounters Klokko, a lone mountain man, who is himself searching for meaning beyond the music that he has always turned to. The novel moves through landscapes redolent of mid-1980s America, and deep into the effect of rock and roll on our collective soul. It's about coming to terms with ourselves.
