Distant Reaches

Description

Another Bumpy Ride Ever try to keep a secret in a foreign country? How about driving a cab while working full time at the local Playboy club? And did you ever want to just RUN away FROM IT ALL!!! Some days are clearly funny. Other days that begin in the absurd can finish unexpectedly poignant. And just once in a while, on occasion, ordinary troubles turn our days to the Biblical, and yes, even unto the Prophetic. You'll laugh. You might even cry. And you will wonder. And then you'll laugh again. Distant Reaches, autobiographical remembrances: Unfolding in Ireland, a bit of Irish fluff, a tale in one city. Then behind the wheel of a Boston cab, exploding into hilarity subdued only with a touch to the heart; Closing on reality; a race for obscurity colliding with a hurricane.
