Synopsis · may contain spoilers

John Purcell wrote weekly Charlie Parker essays throughout 2020, Bird's centennial year. Each essay drew on an event in Bird's life that occurred on or around that date. Now compiled under one cover, these essays explore a wide array of topics, drawing from a comprehensive array of sources. Each essay is complete unto itself, but an overall theme gradually emerges: in light of the opioid epidemic and the Black Lives Matter movement, Now's the Time to rewrite the standard narrative of Charlie Parker's life.
