Very entertaining, thoughtful, sometimes moving. Haven't read any of his other diaries.

"Dwelling on the past, inclined always to melodramatize. Claude and P provoked no less trauma than did a canary once. There was, when I was twelve and avicultural, a bird show at Chicago's Blackstone Hotel where I fell in love with (premature but quaint irony) a cinnamon-throated warbler which Father thought would be one-too-many and forbade the purchase. I walked the night lanes of Jackson Park (Father secretly surveying from the family car), brooded, threatened suicide."

...

"Statistic. On page 12 of his new book Philip Roth writes: 'A phenomenon ... took place within my body between midnight and four a.m. on February 18, 1971, and converted me into a mammary gland disconnected from any human form.' On the afternoon of February 18, 1971, I gave a party at Yaddo for five guests, including Philip R. I remember clearly how he looked."

A varietal collection of essays that spans the worlds of music and literature - this is just what you would expect from Ned Rorem. When he was not writing he was composing beautiful music and vice versa. I would recommend this collection to any music lover on the assumption that they would be literary fans as well.
