Champagne & Irish Bacon
James Liddy (Irish, poet, teacher, gay, rebel) resides right here in this snow shush tree-lined town we call Milwaukee. His most recent book, The Doctor’s House, published by Salmon, is considered a rather “unconventional autobiography.” Read it! Mr. Liddy’s work defies labels, combining American and Irish contexts, states of history, states of love and joy. He was interviewed by John Tyson (poet, publisher, house painter) who produces irregular poetry readings at Voss books in the wonderful Third Ward. Tyson bounced a few e-mails in Liddy’s direction.
