This fucking guy

Finished this.
Guggenheims were right not to give him a cent.
I liked some of his portraits of painters I didn’t know and the one freemason guy but all the pissing and moaning got on my nerves.

Was getting irritated with all his New York and the Midwest suck rants but he mellowed a bit in New Orleans and oddly enough Little Rock Arkansas. He has some nice things to say about a few painters and photographers I was not familiar with. So it’s not all ‘business people bad’ whining.

I do feel a little bad for Youngstown Ohio and Milwaukee. But I’ve never been to either so he might be right for all I know.

He’s definitely not entirely wrong about New York City

Reading this. About 80 pages in.
It’s mostly him ranting about how much better France is than the US
Nazis just chased him out of France then Greece
He seems like a bit of a boomer so far
