The Pugilist Poets of Venice by Jon Sindell

Posted By Audiobook Librarian

The Pugilist Poets of Venice by Jon Sindell

“A rollicking, big-hearted tale, full of laughter, bravery and unflinching humanity.”
~ Emily Kiernan, The Great Divide

A Boomer, an Xer, and a Millennial walk into a book and ask: “Are friends really `the family we choose for ourselves?’ And how cool is cool, really?”

Meet Hammerhead Hirsch, a charismatic middle-aged boho known in the 60s as The Pugilist Poet for his Golden Gloves boxing crown and Beat poetry chops. Thirty years later Head has become a first-time father, and his joy is immense—until the mom bolts. Can Head last fifteen rounds as a single dad with a paltry income, scanty prospects, biting demons, and a “ball-and-chain” kid? The tale is told by a worshipful youth who accompanies Head and his son on a turbulent yet often hilarious
ten-year ride.

“Prose that zings, swings and frequently sings.” ~ Tracy DeBrincat, Hollywood Buckaroo

“Funny, sad, relatable and engrossing.” ~ Stephen D. Gutierrez, American Book Award

“With unflinching honesty, humor and a keen eye for detail, Sindell brings unforgettable characters to life.” ~ Martin McCaw, The Low Road
