Produktbeschreibung
From County Kildare in Ireland, geography and politics matter not to John Doyle; rather, it is how long his hair will remain this color and how long it will stick around before saying sayonara. Songs For Boys Called Wendell Gomez is Doyle's second collection of poetry, and features musings on Spanish supermarkets, pyromaniacs learning their trade in local hay-sheds, Australian postage stamps, nice things that happened in 1986, longwave French radio stations on rainy neon-dazzled nights, some existential excursions in the Irish language, Pete Duel, and the profound epistemological experience of two friends urinating in a river on a Saturday afternoon in 1983.

John Doyle is a former Gunnery Sergeant with the Salvation Army. When not spending time on his whitewashed front-porch swing in the perpetual cool-warmth of late April waving at passing cars and chatting with the pizza delivery man, he likes nothing better than to feed chickens on his imaginary farm in rural County Kildare.
