Inhaltsangabe

From the gritty streets of South Philadelphia to the silent service beneath the waves during the Cold War, Phillip Giambri offers a bare-knuckled, blisteringly eye-opening account of a life lived at the seams.

This collection of performance pieces, stories, and poems—crafted in the style of Bukowski and Runyon—is the testament of "The Ancient Mariner," Giambri's alter-ego. Dive into his world of salty humor, wry insights into human nature, and the profound reality of misadventure fueled by a lifetime spent in the amber glow of the dive bar.

Giambri blends extreme bitterness with unexpected humility and honor, creating a narrative that is at once intensely personal and universally resonant. This is a raw, honest journey through addiction, camaraderie, and the search for self in the darkest corners of the human experience.

Discover the life of a self-proclaimed barfly who somehow found his way right.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

About The Author: Phillip Giambri aka “The Ancient Mariner” A product of the streets of South Philadelphia, he obtained his deviant perspective on life listening to Jean Shepherd on WOR radio back in the ‘50s. Fleeing Philly at seventeen, he served in the US Navy Submarine Force, has been an actor, hairstylist, stoner, janitor, writer, drifter, recording engineer, hired hand, poet, traveling salesman, barfly, banker, biker, bronco buster, announcer, mail-order minister, photographer, and “Computer Guru”. He arrived in NY City in ’68, joined the Hippie pilgrimage to St. Marks Place, and never left. He’s attended too many schools to mention, studying nearly everything, without ever attaining a degree in anything. His work has appeared in Artists in the Kitchen, “Walt’s Corner” in The Long Islander, Silver Birch Press, and NewYorkCityTalking.com. He curates a popular monthly spoken word/poetry event, Rimes of The Ancient Mariner as well as special collaborative events with other artist/performers; most recently the very successful, Barflies & Broken Angels, The Losers Club and What The Hell Is Love? He performs original solo shows as “The Barfly,” “The Village Idiot,” and “The Drunken Sailor.” His website “Ancient Mariner Tales” offer bored web surfers a glimpse into his futile search for self-discovery and meaning. He can be found regularly spinning yarns and telling tall tales anywhere that will tolerate him. www.AncientMarinerTales.com
