Angelini's follow up to the cult classic Hyena doesn't disappoint.Hummingbird is vulnerable where Hyena is wild. First, it'll make you laugh, then it will make you feel but most of all it'll make you think.It's easy to dismiss Hummingbird as a book of sex, drugs and rustbelt thuggery but dig deeper and see the humanity we all share.There is a humility that lies beneath the tales of a drug fueled, often brutal, sex saturated life: a self-awareness that shows the power of vulnerability. Angelini gains insight into the nature of existence through his own fear, insecurity, addiction and losses. This book highlights the importance of the acknowledgement that there's "good" and "bad" in all of us and that one cannot exist without the other. Much like a drug, his ultra-short essay style gives you little dopamine hits with each story pushing you through the book like a fiend.When asked about it, Angelini says this, "It's all true and this is my life. Every word, every sentence was thought out and means something, so read it slow, like it's poetry."
