In Search of Midnight: The Mike McGee Handbook of Awesome
Mike McGee
(Author)
Description
A distinctive and incomparable collection from Mighty Mike McGee, the class clown of spoken word and poetry slam's geek champion. This debut includes his most notable performance poems, stories, humorous anecdotes and how-to's. This handbook moves between serious love tomes, like Open Letter to Neil Armstrong and Every Day, to his most irreverent and requested works, like Puddin' and Like. A true road-dog, McGee travels with words and camera, many results of which are captured in this collection. The humor contained in these pages are a campfire on a lonely winter night, the poetry -- a reason to shout about love.Product Details
