'Gregory de la Haba’s memoir is in the tradition of Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. In a narrative that is engaging, insightful and precise-much like the drawings and sketches by de la Haba that adorn the book-he tells a story of artistic enlightenment, first through youthful attempts to enhance 'the work' through life experience, and then, finding his muse within the people and places that matter most. Read this book to discover what it takes to be an artist, a friend, a husband-a man. Curriculum Vitae is a keeper.' -T.J. English, New York Times best-selling author of The Westies and Havana Nocturne'Curriculum Vitae is a wild book, as eccentric and electric as the talented artist that wrote it. Fantastic.' -James McBride, New York Times bestselling author of The Color of Water and The Good Lord Bird, winner of the National Book Award for Fiction'I don’t recall the last book I read continually, maybe because they’ve all been dry nonfiction, as opposed to what Gregory de la Haba has done with Curriculum Vitae. Aside from What Happens Next in the life of a memoirist (wanting to know), I have to be surprised, at least once a page or so, by the language, meaning, I have to be thinking ’I didn’t see THAT coming...’ then this follows: ’but somehow it’s just right-perfect’ in nuance. This way each vignette becomes a story with an ending and ENDINGS ARE EVERYTHING. No ending, no story. Period. Apart from being an incredible artist, Mr. de la Haba is a natural writer and storyteller. Anyway, a great service has been done, but only for those who love life... no wait, not necessarily that.... but a service to those who have an intense INTEREST in it... it.... it’s doings, the cause and effect of it.' -Allan Weisbecker, author of Cosmic Banditos and In Search of Captain Zero
