Tangled Up in New York, by Howard Weiner
Tangled Up in New York: Shakedown on the Streets...Tales of Tenacity and Pulp Solicitation
is the inspirational, hilarious, and strange saga of a forty-eight year-old
salesman who bagged his day job to hustle books on the streets. From Memorial
Day through Halloween, Howard “Catfish Weiner hauled his Dylan/Dead memoirs
from Battery Park to Yankee Stadium in search of an audience for his
prose. Along the way, Catfish becomes
one with his oppressive environment, fusing with the strange brew of humanity
stampeding along the steamy asphalt jungle. This is the quintessential and
timeless tale of a New Yorker pressing on against all odds to manifest destiny,
on his own terms.
Howard
“Catfish” Weiner is the author of Tangled
Up in Tunes: Ballad of a Dylanhead. During the summer of 2012, he made
history by selling at least one of his books on the bustling Manhattan streets
for thirty-five consecutive days. These days, Catfish resides near the Bronx
Zoo.
