Book excerpt: Poems and prose about musician and songwriter Jeff Tweedy. Best known from the rock band Wilco. Jeff Tweedy, Kinda, is a mix of poems, footnotes, short stories, imaginative interviews and scenes from documentary movies about Tweedy and Wilco. The book is an imagined story about Tweedy's life as a kid, singer, songwriter, son, father and husband. First published in Norway in 2014, as a book and e-book. Excerpts from reviews: “It is an elegant shortness over the story that creates drama and intensity” Gunnar Vilberg, Deichmann Litteraturblogg “…you are left with the feeling of knowing Tweedy, his life, but that is, of course, not the whole truth. The book tells maybe more about American culture, and it does so very well”. Andreas Milde, VG “Johansen manages to portray Tweedy as the weird original he is”. Øyvind Berekvam, Berekvam's blog “The short hypnotic poems draws nicely up situations and time images, giving the appearance of a listeners logbook”. Øyvind Vågnes, Dag og Tid
