'A brave man and a brave poet.' Bob Dylan'Utterly extraordinary.' Guardian'A torrent of textual splendor.' Los Angeles TimesFrom growing up as an orphan in 1920s New York, to serving in the Navy at the D-Day landings in Normandy, to a vagabond life drinking in Parisian cafes, to befriending America's greatest counter-cultural writers, Little Boy has seen it all.
