Publisher's Synopsis
Chuck Howe is a great musician and with If I Had Wings, These Windmills Would Be Dead, he shows what I've known for years: That he's also a brilliant writer. Wings reads like a concept album, with its recurring themes, tons of gorgeous, leftfield imagery and a memory so vivid, you would swear it was all his imagination, if you didn't know him any better. Howe takes you on a trip full of many bumps, bruises and missteps, but the most important thing about a book this good is that it never comes off as boastful and it all leads to a conclusion that leaves you with a feeling of overwhelming hope and love. I hope Chuck keeps at this for a long time. He has the potential to be a real noisemaker in this business and Wings is a great opening riff to start off with. -- Jonny Sparkles, stand up comedian
