Produktbeschreibung
Warm Water is a medley of memoriesa patchwork of twenty-two personal stories from the life of T. J. Richards. Beginning at age four, with the imprinting sound of warm water gushing from a bathtub faucet, the author travels through time on a storytelling trip that carries the reader across a bridge that spans seventy years of the authors life. Autobiographical in nature, anecdotal and confessional at times, this book by T. J. Richards paints colorful portraits of boyhood while growing up in a government housing project known as the Patch. His description of hopping cars in the winter or witnessing a friend fall from a tree offers colorful accounts of his youth that continue through his rebellious teenage years into adulthood, where his personal and professional life as a commercial photographer in the latter half of the 1960s in Los Angeles comes alive.
