Last Call
A mug of beer. A tumbler of whiskey. Relish the results of one poet's reflections during his never-ending journey to the bottom of his glass.
When the status quo seems overwhelmingly bleak, a shooter of something strong can lift the mood. So it's no surprise that this tome brimming with honesty is best served alongside the hair of the dog that inspired it. And down its path through darkness toward low-key revelation, this book for adult readers inspires laughter to ease the pain and peculiarities that accompany ordinary existence.
Embracing booze as his mistress and life's absurdities as his muse, award-winning poet Randall McNair crafts a series of evocative pictures from his routine perch on a barstool. Refusing to shy away from the lows of the human condition, his blunt words cut to the heart of everyday struggles.
If you've ever spent time pondering existence through a bottle, the touch of blue in McNair's paired despair and optimism will strike a chord.
Last Call is the humorous third volume in the Bar Poems series of gritty verse. If you have a raw love for life, naughty narratives, and creative drinking, then you'll adore Randall McNair's unique slant on poetry.
