Darwin's Moon: A memoir of pain and glory in poetry and prose - Paperback

by Tim Schaefer (Author)

Brought up in a dysfunctional family, a boy shunned by his peers makes do with dreams and the late night Wolfman Jack radio show--developing an appreciation for rhythm and blues, and the kind of showmanship it would take to achieve his aspirations. Then, one by one, those dreams begin to come true. Darwin's Moon--A Memoir of Pain and Glory in Poetry and Prose--is a wistful and witty reflection for mature readers on the life and times of a rock n roll radio deejay. In turns heartbreaking and comically bizarre, "Moon" is a true story for everyone who has faced adversity at some time in their lives. A journey of self-discovery for anyone who has ever dared to dream.
