The Donkey Show (Commonplace Jernt)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Meet Patrick, a bright and well-meaning white-boy freshly relocated to the semi-dark world of New Orleans. After humid mornings spent misleading inner-city youth, Patrick pedals his disloyal bike to The Donkey Show, where he slaves for tips, chases love, and experiments with Relativity (or tries to) as his first ever Mardi Gras tumbles silently by, on the other side of the Picture Window. Michael Welch is an awesome, feral talent. He's the most exciting young writer I've come across. Jonathan Ames, author of The Extra Man ItOs no surprise that lurking under the usual perception of New Orleans exists a grainier, grittier experience, one connected by memorable characters, streets and experiences. Michael Welch tells his stories with emotion and intelligence, with a sense of drama and a sense of humor. Paul Tough, New York Times
