An Occasional Hell - 1st Edition/1st Printing
A handsome first edition/first printing in unread Fine condition in Fine dust-jacket. Signed by author Randall Silvis directly on the title page.
Randall Silvis tells the story of his unlikely friendship with the unhinged and psychotic Earl Stone. Stone is incarcerated in a state-run mental hospital, and Silvis visits him regularly to deliver food and cigarettes. The two men share an easy rapport, but Silvis is constantly on edge, never sure what Stone will do or say next.
Stone is a tortured soul, but he also has a deep understanding of the human condition. As Silvis gets to know him, he starts to see the cracks in Stone's facade, and he begins to understand the man behind the madness.
This is a heartbreaking and ultimately uplifting story about the power of friendship, the healing power of forgiveness, and the courage to face demons head-on.; 8vo; Signed by Author.
