Smith has worn a lot of hats, and hes worn them well. His story here has the emotional resonance of all of his writing. Much of his lifes work has been focused on making the point that working-class lives like his in communities like his are important to our culture and history, and he makes that point more strongly than ever in telling of his own in this memoir.
