Cash: The Autobiography by Johnny Cash. I just picked up this book in paperback. Honestly, I never really have listened to that much Johnny Cash. I like what I’ve heard, but never really went out of my way to hear it. I just finished reading Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and I kind of wanted to read something a little different. While looking around for some Henry Rollins books in the music section of Borders yesterday, I came across the Cash Autobiography. I read the first paragraph or two of the book and realized yep, this should be pretty interesting.

I also couldn’t help but think of John Cusak’s character, Rob, in ‘High Fidelity’ saying, “I’ve read books like “Unbearable Lightness of Being” and “Love in the Time of Cholera.” And I think I’ve understood them. They’re about girls, right? Just kidding. But I have to say…my all-time favorite book is Johnny Cash’s autobiography “Cash” by Johnny Cash.”

So it was bought. The last kind of autobiographical book I read, was either Stephen King’s “on writing” or “My Life” by Ghandi. I never finished the Ghandi book. Its freakin huge and I had to give it back to somebody who was going out of town for good.

Anyways, another book I’m looking for on that same ilk is Chuck Pahlaniuk, “Stranger than Fiction”.
