Narration During Books Eye Scream

"Work on Eye Scream started in 1986. I was crossing America constantly and experiencing the morality shifts, attitudes, and rituals in different parts of the country - the difference in the way people were in the Bible Belt as opposed to New York City, the way blacks and whites interfaced, the intolerance of homosexuality, the morality plays. I started to become aware of how brutal the country is and how much ferocity, cruelty, and oppression are inherent in the culture and how much of it was in me. I wanted to document it and create a book that brought the whole thing to a boil and see w here it left me off. In the summer of 1995, I finished the book and started to edit. Re-reading the manuscript over and over, I realized all the things I had picked up over a decade of playing Devil's advocate and it was inspiring because it clearly defined who my enemies are. As an American, I feel it impossible not to be infuriated by the way things are and have been. I refuse to be happy about the day-to-day and go along with it. There's too much spitting in my face and too much spitting in the faces of people who don't know any other way of life. This book is brutal, and at times, funny. I know that I will probably get a ton of shit for Eye Scream. Enjoy, or better yet... don't." ---- Henry Rollins

Notice Out Of Books Eye Scream

So disappointing compared to other books by him. Maybe I just wasn't deep enough to get it.

disturbing? yes, and then some. Eye opening? Unfortunately, yes. Did my eyes scream? Yes. and they still hurt. Rollins is AMAZING.

In this edition, Hank is extremely crazed and angry from the get-go. This book is like a truck ride down a pothole filled road, where you want it to stop because you feel like you're going to be sick, but yet want it to keep going because you're having so much fun!

I always feel bad writing or talking about Henry Rollins' books. As a long time devotee of Black Flag, Rollins Band and Henry's spoken word efforts it kills me that I can only give Eye Scream 3-stars. Don't even wish to list the ones I would rate less.But I don't dismiss his writing, and continue to read his new stuff, because the real magic of a Rollins book is't the story: it's the inspirational power. At least for me. You see, I try to be a guy who writes from his gut - not from polished

short stories & dreams.

Some of the poetry and images are disturbing in this one. I found myself reading through a part, then immediately going back and reading it again just to make sure it was really what it said. It does make you take a step back and look at yourself and your perspective on life. Interesting read.
