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 for the poet to be stuck on a barstool year after year over a ten year period, ruminating on his Joe Sixpack existence.

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, resurrecting images of McNair’s dead kin, his despair and the struggles of managing his marriage and his relationship with the mistress, booze. McNair’s 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.
