Also a Poet: Frank O'Hara, My Father, and Me by Ada Calhoun

emotional funny informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

I loved this book, which combines biography and memoir in an utterly compelling & beautifully written way. Not only do you get to learn about Frank O’Hara through the lens of interviews given by his friends and family, but you’re taken on the author’s personal journey as she attempts to come to terms with her relationship with her father. 

I would recommend this to poets, & to anybody that’s ever had a weird relationship with a parent. But also, to anybody that just likes good writing.
