- Summary:
- With the release of HelloSunshine, Ryan Adams breaks literary ground far beyond what he accomplished with his critically acclaimed first book, Infinity Blues. Where his debut was characterized by the bitterness of heartbreak, HelloSunshine is a graceful, sensual assertion of the other side of the emotional coin. This is a fever dream-inside Ryans heart and mind-replete with unforgettable verse that will shock and delight those expecting a mere continuation of where Infinity Blues left off. Ryan Adams has always been a poet and fiction writer at heart; HelloSunshine will establish without a doubt that the man is as eloquent and evocative with his typewriter as he is with his guitar and microphone.
