Sax Man's Journal

Average Rating:

Based on 0 reviews

In 1961 nineteen-year-old Woody Altman gets thrown out of Princeton. Not willing to live by his parents’ rules, he takes off to New York to become a professional musician. Arriving in Greenwich Village during the Beat Generation movement of the early sixties, Woody earns his way by getting noticed in the gritty coffeehouses of the Village and squalid clubs of Harlem. Ultimately it will lead to the love of his life, which ends in tragedy. Sax Man’s Journal explores the themes of sexuality and promiscuity, addiction, pleasure, and regret, all told from the perspective of a seventy-eight-year-old man looking back on his life.
