"Sonny's Bridge: Jazz Legend Sonny Rollins Finds His Groove" by Keith Mallett tells the inspiring story of jazz saxophonist Sonny Rollins, renowned for his innovative sound and improvisational skills. The narrative highlights a pivotal moment in Rollins’ life when he famously took a hiatus from performing to refine his craft. The story unfolds as he seeks solitude on the Williamsburg Bridge in New York City, where he practices and reconnects with his musical identity. This engaging tale celebrates creativity, perseverance, and the quest for artistic authenticity, illustrating how Rollins' journey reshaped not only his music but also the landscape of jazz.
