Here Comes Trouble by Michael Moore
An anti-memoir that traces the origins of the author's political rabble-rousing and his early forays into campaigning for change. It reveals the family, friends and events that have shaped him: from teachers and Senator Robert Kennedy to parents and the Vietnam War.
Hilarious * Guardian *
A comic genius * Independent *
Caustic, breakneck, tell-it-like-it-is.. He's a genuine populist; a twenty-first century pamphleteer * Observer *
Moore has mastered the rare trick of being passionate and funny at the same time * New Statesman *
Moore is a worldwide force ... a cultural icon * The Times *
Outstanding ... with the book's emotional highs and lows, and self-deprecating, empathetic style, Moore triumphs. ... enlightening, engaging, and occasionally enraging * Publisher's Weekly *
Here Comes Trouble is by far Mr. Moore's best book...[his] coming of age as a working-class malcontent is...something to behold. It's the story of a big lunk who learns to yoke his big mouth to a sense of purpose. It persuades you to take Mr. Moore seriously, and it belongs on a shelf with memoirs by, and books about, nonconformists like Mother Jones, Abbie Hoffman, Phil Ochs, Rachel Carson, Harvey Pekar and even Thomas Paine. -- Dwight Garner * New York Times *
