از زمین تا ماه - رمان جدید فرانک زاپا

People used to say that Frank, an enthusiast of the scatological (see “Illinois Enema Bandit”), once ate poop on stage. He didn’t. But Moon was surely fed a lot of crap growing up, “spoon fed,” she writes. Earth to Moon makes clear that she has decided the browbeating and emotional abandonment ends with her. The book catalogs the odd and caustic currents that permeated the Zappa family home in Los Angeles’s Laurel Canyon neighborhood (now owned by Georgia May Jagger, daughter of Mick). There, on Woodrow Wilson Drive for some 30 years, lived composer/guitarist Frank, his long-suffering wife, Gail, and their children: Moon, now an author and yoga teacher; Dweezil, a guitarist who tours to keep his father’s music before the world; the podcaster Ahmet; and Diva, said to be knitting a mile-long scarf she calls “Emilio.”
