Forever Words: The Unknown Poems

De: Johnny Cash, Paul Muldoon - editor, Paul Muldoon - introduction, John Carter Cash - foreword

Narrado por: Milton Bagby

A collection of never-before-published poems by Johnny Cash, edited and introduced by Pulitzer Prize-Winning poet Paul Muldoon with a foreword by John Carter Cash.

Since his first recordings in 1955, Johnny Cash was an icon in the music world. In this collection of poems and song lyrics that have never been published before, we see the world through his eyes and view his reflection on his own interior reality, his frailties and his strengths alike. In his hallmark voice, he pens verses about love, pain, freedom, and mortality, and expresses insights on culture, his family, his fame, even Christmas. Forever Words confirms Johnny Cash as a brilliant and singular American literary figure. His music is a part of our collective history, and here the depth of his artistry and talent become even more evident.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A really interesting piece

A great compilation of petty that a timeless American musician had found to be worthwhile for the nation. Johnny R. Cash is an inspiring figure and one to absorb in just the right proportion. This is to be done with certain exclusion of any and all drugs and paraphernalia which are forbidden and banned in the Churches regard. I highly recommend this book.

Just poetry

Just poetry that never grew into songs by Johnny Cash. It was nice to listen to some of Johnny Cash’s poetry, if at the very least for historical interest, but if you really aren’t a Cash fan you could skip this and not miss out. Some of his writings were pretty good as poems but they don’t really feel like a Cash creation without some music. Good narration though and good accompanying pdf.

Loved it

I didn’t like the narrator’s voice, but loved the poems. I hadn’t thought about Johnny Cash being a poet, but I suppose that’s not unusual in that he was a song writer.

wow
