Shouting in the Evenings

In 1963, a young man from Limerick took his £25 savings and journeyed to London to become an actor. To pay his way through drama school he worked as a security guard (once for The Beatles) and served drinks to Miss World contestants at the Lyceum Theatre, then a Mecca Ballroom. While still a student, he was picked to play a small role in Andorra in the inaugural season of the National Theatre at the Old Vic... Fifty years later, while appearing in his fifty-sixth NT production – Pirandello’s Liolà – he was invited by Director Nicholas Hytner to take part in 50 Years on Stage, the NT’s anniversary celebration.

This is a collection of short stories that, when brought together, form the picture of a singular life: that of Terry Donegan and his black Irish luck. These are his memoirs—done his way. Told in an off-the-wall stream-of-consciousness writing style, the stories ramble from one topic to another...but always find their way back in the end. Side-splitting anecdotes are interwoven with heart-wrenching stories about sports, life, and doings things your own way—even when that way is stupid. Reading this book is like talking to a buddy in a bar while drinking a beer. Donegan lived a wild, crazy, and fun life, and if he learned one thing, it was that nothing goes quite the way you expect it to. But if you have great friends and a great attitude, you can live a truly great life, be true to yourself, and never back down from anything. Donegan is donating $1 from every book sold to the Michael J Fox Foundation, which is doing such wonderful things to give Parkinson's patients like himself hope. He’s also donating $1 from every book sold to the Navajo Nation. After you read the book, you’ll understand why.

TOME OF HORROR

David Maurice Garrett‘s stories have been variously compared to Edgar Allan Poe, H.P. Lovecraft, Algernon Blackwood, Ambrose Bierce, and Manly Wade Wellman. Drawing on legends, folktales, and a rich blend of classic short horror story elements, Garrett’s stories conjure supernatural terrors and gothic atmospheres reminiscent of the Elder Days of Horror. This collection contains 32 eerie tales including “The Undertaker’s Task”, a story of a mortician’s grim job of embalming his own daughter, “The Sacred Burial Ground”, wherein two hapless friends unleash an ancient curse upon a community, and “The Door”, in which a professor infatuated with tombs unwittingly becomes the victim of his own obsession. Prepare to be unnerved, for the classic horror tale is not dead!
