Publisher's Summary
"If you’re working class, you understand that no one understands you."
Dave Newman’s fierce and jittery memoir reveals, in unsanitized detail and naked, smart reflection, the story of a working class casualty--or near casualty--that a less honest, less inquisitive writer might avoid. In this exquisitely paced, wrenchingly beautiful tale of addictions, of needing help, of helping and not helping, of fighting and surviving, of the will and wonder and work of loving hard, of brokenness and the precarious impulse to apply the glue and clamp ourselves back together, Newman proves that he is beyond truth-seeker. He is a truth be-er.
Critic Reviews
The Same Dead Songs is a darkly enjoyable, heart-opening schooling. --Nancy Krygowski, The Woman In The Corner
