Rendition As Books BOAT SHOES – SOLILOQUY OF A USELESS EATER: Book Two
Ever wonder what really goes on behind the scenes at one of the most prestigious residential buildings in New York City—a multiple dwelling Upper East Side building located on Fifth Avenue, where the 0.01% of society pretends to commingle with the meager 1%—and jaw-droppingly told through the introspective eyes of an intelligent, browbeaten, misanthropic, self-medicating doorman?“Never give in to psychiatry when in pursuit of the American Dream.” – Daire Feeney.
In his debut series of novels, Daire Feeney has been loosely described as Frank McCourt meets Chuck Palahniuk as he tells an unbelievable transgressive story of a Fifth Avenue doorman for which one reviewer remarked, imagine if the Nanny Diaries was authored by Hunter S. Thompson but the main characters were sociopathic Fifth Avenue doormen!
BOAT SHOES – SOLILOQUY OF A USELESS EATER tells the story of a first-generation son of Irish immigrants who, after falling on hard financial times, and a subsequent failed suicide attempt, finds himself seeking employment at his old high school job as a Fifth Avenue doorman.
The reader follows the NYC native throughout a grueling 16-hour doorman shift as he is ridiculed by his employers, plied with narcotics by the old guard, sexually assaulted by residents, and becomes witness—and participant—to a wide range of inconceivable acts of moral turpitude; all in the pursuit of his specious American Dream.
Book One of the series will be exclusively available to users of Amazon Kindle beginning December 11th. Kindle users can pre-order both Book One and Book Two of the series immediately.

In the beginning of this opus, book one of two, Daire Feeney makes reference to James Joyce and Finnegan's Wake and I must confess that this novel reminded me of Joyce. This book is not for the faint of heart nor one bothered by colorful language or cussing. Personally, I wasn't bothered. This is also not a book to skim through as it is not light fluff, but, rather an involved character study of a day in the life of the main character, son of Irish American immigrants. After a failed suicide#1 I dont leave reviews but this book so disgusted me and destroyed my faith in human kind that I had to leave a review. #2 - Is this really the world we live in ? Do we really have to be haunted by people who are inspired by Bret Easton Ellis, or Hunter S Thompson or Diary of an Oxygen Thief? BTW one of the ladies thought this book might be like the Nanny Diaries but she failed to read the online description if it were authored by Hunter S Thompson. My bookclub was emailed an ARC copy of Book

Begins with a disclaimer leading one to wonder what theyve actually signed up for with this author. A fictional memior at first seems to show a lot of promise with how vividly the author is able to paint a picture of what hes writting about. However this quickly becomes tedious work for the reader to follow. It seems as though the author needs you to know every single miniscule detail about where hes at. I do understand the point of a memoir, however knowing every tiny detail where it becomes
