Here Comes Trouble

Here Comes Trouble (2011) by Michael Moore. Documentary filmmaker and all-around gadfly Moore has written a book in which he documents scenes from his own life. What led him to be the person he is today? Find the answers here. At first I found this book a little hard to get into, but by the time I got to the end I was gobbling it up like some thriller. Moore started out as a long-haired hippie back in the '60s, and surprised everyone when he won election to his local school board at the age of 18. What this book really addresses is life before "Roger and Me," his documentary which made him truly famous. The stories contained in this book eventually knit together into a cohesive whole which gives us a portrait of the artist as a young man. It may be a little self-serving at times, but I was willing to go along with the flow. Grade: B+
