Back and Out Again is Mark Morgan Ford's first collection of poetry - the product of a three-year challenge to write a poem a day. With a willingness to put quantity above quality, he explored dozens of established and some novel approaches to rhyme, rhythm, and form. The subjects ranged from mythology to politics to death to the complexities of human relationships. Of the roughly thousand poems written, these are 91 of his editor's picks.

In Back From the Abyss, Kieran Doherty takes the reader along on the wild ride that was his life. With a voice reminiscent of Pete Hamill's in A Drinking Life and a childhood as tough as Frank McCourt's in Angela's Ashes, he tells his story, full of wit, bravado, and Irish charm. We watch him change from altar boy to rebel ... then throw away a promising career in the theater. We follow him through his almost unbelievable adventures in the military ... through four marriages and countless lovers ... through the alcohol-fueled crimes that ultimately landed him in prison ... and, finally, through the ugly reality of the cancer that killed him. Along the way, we get a feel for the internal pain, the constant struggle of the "low-bottom" alky to make it from one day to the next.

<p>Alec was 50 years old, experienced in living, sore in the joints, recently married... and a first-time father. While his high school friends were sending their kids off to college, he was faced with changing diapers. He resolved to bear it with a grin and recorded his experiences--funny, sad, and surprising--in a journal that he shared with those high school friends. They helped and heckled him along the way, half-happy they were done with it and half-envious of the insights he had about parenting as a late-in-life dad.</p>
