Captivating. Intertwines fact with fiction regarding Poe's marriage and his mistress and the relationship of all three. Surprise ending that shows truth is stranger than fiction. Well-written, easy to read.

Fascinating. Couldn't put it down. He tells the stories behind some of the most iconic films and actors ever as well as his first love, being a human rights activist for Native Americans and working with Martin Luther King. His story is told with honesty and humor. Much is relevant to today's news.
