El Lobo
El Lobo, a recently released ex-con, returns to the barrio and the Westside Eleventh Avenue gang. With instructions from the incarcerated el grandes, El Lobo is to build up the gang by controlling the drug and human smuggling trade in Phoenix. El Lobo starts by instilling fear in the residents by making them pay a new use tax for driving on one of the barrio's city streets. Barrio resident Mrs. Tino suffers the consequences for unknowingly not paying the tax. It is not until John Thompson, a city resident from outside the barrio, makes a wrong turn down North Eleventh Avenue and gets robbed that police are made aware of this use tax being charged by the Westside Eleventh Avenue Street gang. ...
Black Irish Luck
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.
T.C. Murray, Dramatist
Drawing on the archives of libraries in Dublin, New York City, and Boston, Albert J. DeGiacomo assesses T. C. Murray's contribution to the Irish dramatic movement. One of "the Cork realists" of the Abbey Theatre, Murray wrote seventeen plays in one, two, or three acts. A prominent National Teacher and a seemingly apolitical playwright in the Irish Literary Revival, Murray expressed nationalistic aspirations in his peasant tragedies. His characters' drive for self-determination and their religious consciousness mark Murray's dramatic landscape.
