Vudi Gatri - Na putu do slave

Now filmed starring DAVID CARRADINE as WOODY GUTHRIE for UNITED ARTISTS release

First published in 1943, this autobiography is also a superb portrait of America`s Depression years, by the folk singer, activist, and man who saw it all.

Woody Guthrie was born in Oklahoma and traveled this whole country over—not by jet or motorcycle, but by boxcar, thumb, and foot. During the journey of discovery that was his life, he composed and sang words and music that have become a national heritage. His songs, however, are but part of his legacy. Behind him Woody Guthrie left a remarkable autobiography that vividly brings to life both his vibrant personality and a vision of America we cannot afford to let die.

Foreword by Pete Seeger
Bound for Glory, first published in 1943, is the autobiography of Woody Guthrie, the founder of modern American folk music. It is a funny, cynical, earthy and tragic account of his life in an Okie oil-boom town, of the Depression that followed, and of his subsequent travels in, on, and under trains, in stolen cars, and on his feet, round an America going romen from the top downwards.

Woody writes as he spoke, and his voice is the voice of Kerouac, Corso, Dylan and Brautigan.
`Shockingly inmediate and real... It`s not often in literature that we get a work by someone who loves and is one of the people: this is a book to make novelists and sociologists jealous.`
