Book Review of Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up To Me

Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up To Me
reviewed on + 23 more book reviews


I first read this during my sophomore year in college ('67), and have re-read it every two or three years, having by now committed large portions of the book to my wetware. I've even told the wolf story a few times.

This is a wonderful glimpse of what a fabulous story-teller Richard Farina might have been - he died in a motorcycle accident a few days after the novel was published.
