IT BEGINS IN THE WIND

“What I have learned is that my work is at its most incendiary whenever I can summon the courage to abandon my thesis, whenever I can break hard left and unleash black hell along the prairie.” – Bob Hill

It Begins In The Wind is a collection of essays written between 2018 and 2026, and set for release from Gold Coast Editions in March of 2027. Moving from New York City to Venice Beach, from the Pocono Mountains to Yosemite, New Orleans, India, and beyond, this is a deeply personal collection that explores the places and experiences that shape us, along with the people who move in and out of our lives along the way. Entire sections of It Begins In The Wind were written in planes and on trains, in hotel rooms and in rented spaces. Specific entries delve into youth versus wisdom, spirituality versus religion, addiction and recovery, being in love versus being alone, the artist’s path, and more.
