The new selection of short fiction by Tom Driscoll, Footnote to Doggerel, will take the reader back and forth in time and geography, from WWII to the rain forest of the Congo, the Pisgah Mountains of North Carolina to the looping dreamscapes of organ failure. Doomed lovers and resilient losers populate the stories; magic and myth, the vitality of youth and the wages of aging, rage, hallucination, heroism, charlatans and innocents come alive through Driscoll's dur cuire storytelling.
