review 1: I really enjoyed his first book and this year being my senior year in my leadership development class we had to choose a book of a person who inspired our lives and I decided to find and read his second book and it took a while but I finally found it and I enjoyed every piece. His life is very interesting and I love the way people as you enter but I enjoyed being able to feel and see through his eyes it was amazing.
review 2: This was so great. Rodriguez's life as an activist and father and recovering gangster/alcoholic and poet. I liked it so much better than La Vida Loca because he is mature and talks about the women in his life with respect and acknowledgement of his part in the problems he had with his wives.

... moret of his son, but it's also very heartening to read how he supported his son as best he could and tried to fix his mistakes. I could not put the book down and really learned a lot about Chicano/Chicana activism and the unionization of manufacturing industry in the 80s. less
