Scab Vendor

Confessions of a Tattoo Artist

De: Jonathan Shaw

Narrado por: Carol Monda, Jonathan Shaw

Jonathan Shaw's Scab Vendor: Confessions of a Tattoo Artist is a surreal, multigenerational roller-coaster ride through the underbelly of modern culture, charting the course of a life measured by extremes and all the people, places, and events that shaped that life into a survivor's tale of epic proportions. In it, Shaw takes the listener deep, not only into the recesses of his extraordinary mind and adventures but also into the strange and magical process of memoir-writing itself.

If truth is indeed stranger than fiction, then, as Shaw's friend and literary mentor Charles Bukowski once told him, much of this book would have to be lived before it could be written. In that sense, Scab Vendor: Confessions of a Tattoo Artist is much more than a fascinating chronicle of a popular outlaw artist's creative evolution. It is a multicolored, cinematic, modern-day Odyssey, written in blood, ink, and tears - a kaleidoscopic, visionary road map to the journey of the human soul.

Oh boy....

It’s clear this guy fancy himself as a Hunter S. Thompson. It’s just a bunch of babbling nonsense. I really tried to give a chance and usually no matter how bad I always give a book a chance and stick it through to the end. I couldn’t even make past chapter 6. This book. Its not good

too many note

I believe the movie Amadeus said it best, "Too many notes."

Perhaps the fault lies within me. I wanted to love this book, but i get lost in the grandiose speech and sentence structure.

An extra star tho, for the tenacity it takes to accomplish writing a book.

not worth it.

this book was very hard to listen to. I understand the author wanting to narrate it himself, but he did not have a good reading voice nor was the story that good to begin with.

Laughable vanity project

Self-absorbed gibberish and fantasy. Cheap imitation of Charles Bukowski. Total waste. Keep moving.You’re welcome.

Not for everyone. Only for the keen rebel punx

Not for everyone. Only for the keen rebel punx whose into underground underdogs . Can’t scale with industry standards. If you are outsider who has a hard time fitting into society.
,this is the book to read.
