I felt like I was diving deeper into McNair's mind with each poem I read. A variety of subjects are covered, all through the lens of alcohol. An evocative read that will capture you, and you'll want to keep reading to the very end. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I have to say this definitely made me smile! ( ) no reviews | add a review
Belongs to SeriesBar Poems (2)
Broken into five sections-The Status Quo, The Descent, Death in the Middle, The Rising, and Return with the Elixir-"Make it a Double" is a heartfelt, humorous recounting of what it was like to be stuck on a barstool year after year over a ten-year period, ruminating on one's purpose. The second in award winning poet Randall McNair's Bar Poems series, Make it a Double builds on the momentum of "Dispatches from the Swinging Door Saloon" to resurrect images of McNair's dead kin, and his love for life-though buried in a bottle of whiskey-is evident throughout its pages. If you enjoy raw, gritty, unique images used to paint pictures of love, life and self-loathing, then you'll love this volume of blue collar poetry "written by a man for men."
