Author Isaac Fitzgerald, with Dirtbag, Massachusetts: A Confessional

Description

Join Gibson's Bookstore in presenting author Isaac Fitzgerald for a fiercely New England memoir on his paperback book tour for his bestselling memoir Dirtbag, Massachusetts: A Confessional. Fitzgerald will be joined in conversation by author Peter Orner (Still No Word From You: Notes in the Margin). Winner of the New England Book Award for Nonfiction Isaac Fitzgerald has lived many lives. He's been an altar boy, a bartender, a fat kid, a smuggler, a biker, a prince of New England. But before all that, he was a bomb that exploded his parents' lives-or so he was told. In Dirtbag, Massachusetts, Fitzgerald, with warmth and humor, recounts his ongoing search for forgiveness, a more far-reaching vision of masculinity, and a more expansive definition of family and self.
