  • Thank you for posting an excerpt from this incredible book. Shepard's magic realism always entertains. 

  • I enjoyed this book very much. These short stories that seem possibly autobiographical and experienced on a road trip across America, there's a lot of similarity between it and Kerouac's On the Road. There's reality and fantasy mixed together, something that Sam Shepard is good at.

  • I live in México. I have this book, Hawk Moon and Great Dream of Heaven, I love Paris-Texas... Saludos...

  • he ROCKS!!!

  • @HumanBozoBoy he didn't want to be a movie star. Instead he's known as the greatest American playwright of his time. Has been? I think not. And it's a sad society when you think getting lots of PR is what makes someone important or special. Paris Hilton gets tons of PR.

  • About a month ago i was wandering through an old country book shop and found a copy of 'cruising paradise'. I had never read a book from cover to finish, then read it again right after. He really evokes an image of how I imagine America. It's amazing listening to him read his own stories with his low gravel voice.

  • This is from "Day Out of Days", his newest release - 2009/2010.

  • His voice rocks. Theres a documentary about Kurosawa that he narrated... Gah. Excellent voice.

  • Fuck you. My name. MINE

  • I have this book.. I came across it at the public library when I saw the cover of Sam in his twenties with a cowboy hat walking with a bottle of beer by a Ford Model T. I knew it had something for me if I read it. And it did.
