Jesus Sound Explosion by Mark Curtis Anderson

Set against the sounds of Led Zeppelin, Yes, and Bruce Springsteen, this work recalls Mark Curtis Anderson's quest for worldliness-through-rock as he came of age as a Baptist preacher's kid in the 1970s.

A heartfelt, funny, and offbeat memoir- Minneapolis - St. Paul Star Tribune ""A remarkably down-to-earth, unpretentious read... Anderson's generous sensibility melds barbs of anger with genuine affection for those he grew up with in the faith."" - Chicago Reader

MARK CURTIS ANDERSON teaches writing at the University of Minnesota and lives in St. Paul with his wife, Patricia.
