A collection of never-before-published poems by Johnny Cash, edited and introduced by Pulitzer-prize winning poet Paul Muldoon with a foreword by John Carter Cash. Illustrated with facsimile reproductions of Cash's own handwritten pages.

Since his first recordings in 1955, Johnny Cash was an icon in the music world. In this collection of poems and song lyrics that had never been published before, we see the world through his eyes and view his reflection on his own interior reality, his frailties and his strengths alike. In his hallmark voice, he pens verses about love, pain, freedom, and mortality, and expresses insights on culture, his family, his fame, even Christmas. Forever Words confirms Johnny Cash as a brilliant and singular American literary figure. His music is a part of our collective history, and here the depth of his artistry and talent become even more evident.

About Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash (1932–2003), born in Kingsland, Arkansas, was known as the Man in Black across a five-decade career in American music. His live albums At Folsom Prison (1968) and At San Quentin (1969) were recorded before incarcerated audiences. Late in his life, the American Recordings series produced by Rick Rubin returned him to wide acclaim. His poems were collected posthumously in Forever Words: The Unknown Poems (Blue Rider Press, 2016), edited by Paul Muldoon. He was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1980, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992, and the Gospel Music Hall of Fame in 2010.
