Lessons: Boys' Homes/Prisons/Lunatic Asylums

by Horace Martin, Timothy Brandoff (Foreword), Kista Cook (Contributor)

"Not just a read. An experience." –Patrick N."With a beautiful economy and an eye for the absurd, Horace Martin’s poems and stories deliver a tale of a life fully lived. Hilarious and poignant, outrageous and tender, LESSONS offers us a wisdom built out of loss but told with such big hearted joy, we are all spellbound in its wake." –Molly Parker FROM THE "I did not conform. I did not have a formal education. I have been a bricklayer, a sailor, a boxer, an actor, a felon, a regular at boys’ homes, detention centers, lunatic asylums, and prisons. A very exciting life and also very painful." –Horace Martin (born in Ireland, raised in the UK, and knocked head across the world)
