It shouldn't be much of a shock that the late comedian Bill Hicks--who died of pancreatic cancer--was kind of a jerk, but he was a brilliant jerk and the people who were closest to him loved him dearly. This book is a wonderful homage to a man who made us laugh and think.

A bit chunkily edited, a bit confusing sometimes in terms of timeline, with all that jumping to and fro and all the different snippets of contributions by friends and acquaintances – but a great profile nevertheless.
You get to see the other side and the very side you knew of this multifaceted and extraordinary human being that so many of us feel as if we were closest friends with. This actually strengthens that feeling, and makes us grow fond of all that people that knew him and loved him, as if we were all just part of some really large network of folks whose lives are intertwined and were made better by the mere touch of this one guy.
Which we probably are, anyway.
More for die hard fans than for people who just found out about him, definitely, but if your case is the latter just watch a couple of his shows and you'll come over to the fan side, you'll see :)

Thinking of you and missing you, Bill, as usual, and as you already know. Always on my mind. Always with us in spirit.
Sending love – One Love <3
