The Forgotten Papers by Jeff Harris is a mixed genre book with elements of non-fiction, poetry, and fiction. The book is Jeff Harris's experimental writings all compiled together in one work. This is a book that would appeal most to an audience of young adults and adults who consider themselves to be adventurous readers. Jeff Harris touches on many different topics that range from political to sexual and everything in between. The book opens with Jeff Harris explaining that the stories are presented in no particular order and with no intended reasoning.

I can say with complete honesty that The Forgotten Papers by Jeff Harris is like no other book that I have ever read. The book has no organization and very little in the way of transitions from one story to another. Yet, I found that the disorganized manner of the book appealed to me; it felt like reading it was something of a mystery and an adventure as I never knew what the next page would hold. I liked the fact that I could read a bit of it, walk away, and go right back to reading it without missing a beat. I personally liked the way that Jeff Harris kept the sexual aspects of his book more abstract and did not overwhelm me with sexual content, but instead made it a fun and surprising part of the book. Overall, I found that I enjoyed the unique nature of this book and would recommend it to those looking for something different to read!

The Forgotten Papers by Jeff Harris is a whimsical little book that defies genre or any set of writing rules. This book has no plot and you will not be able to find one in it, no matter how hard you try. This is a fragmented, "absurd" book that feels very experimental, but this experiment works. Although this book is not for everyone, it is definitely for people who like to read something that defies rules and becomes whatever they want at that time.

There are parts of the book that are fictional with a well-developed character, but then there are parts where Jeff Harris is talking directly with us. Some places, it feels like he is mourning something, and some places it feels like he is celebrating something as simple as life. This book is perfect for people who just want to simply read. They can open any page at random and start reading, and it will make sense. You will get the opportunity to lose yourself in the pages and let your mind wander on the page. This is a form of adventure writing, I suppose. Plus, it feels like this would be wonderful for readers with short attention spans, like Jeff Harris suggested. They can pick it up, read anything like prose or poetry, and in their short attention time, they can read a complete story in a couple of sentences. Jeff Harris wrote a simple, yet very well-written book that will make you feel good.

The Forgotten Papers by Jeff Harris is an unusual book. In fact, it doesn’t read like the author intended to write a consistent book. One finds in these pages a blend of many genres — poetry, elements of a memoir, journal entries, random recollections of events, and spontaneous thoughts about life, love, death, and many things in between. It can read as sloppy at times, then there are some serious entries that are beautiful to read. The author warns that this isn’t one’s regular book and he is right. So, before you read, don’t expect to find stellar writing, even if the voice is genuine, light, and jovial; the author seems to have the desire to make the reader edit the work for him.

Jeff Harris’s book is passionate and he seems to have poured so much of his soul into these pages. He says: “These are the forgotten papers that fell out of the sky. Actually they were lost in a closet for many years.” The author offers them to readers just as they were written, with no embellishments of any kind. The Forgotten Papers will lead readers into the life, the joys and pains, the hopes and fears, the music of the soul of a human being like them. I was drawn in by the lack of pretentiousness in the work.
