Making God Laugh: A Memoir of Psychiatry, Dublin, and the Electric Chair - Softcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

After graduating from Yale, R.C. Goodwin spent six demanding but wonderful years in Dublin attending medical school before returning to the U.S. for an internship and psychiatric residency. Since then, he has worked in private practice, jails and prisons, nursing homes, a substance abuse facility, and a student mental health clinic at a major university-all of which he describes in his memoir, Making God Laugh. His fiction has appeared in Elixir, Center, Northeast, and Writers Digest Online among other publications. It has also been published in two anthologies, Stories that Need to be Told and Coolest American Stories. Goodwin's debut book The Stephen Hawking Death Row Fan Club, a prison-based collection of award-winning short stories and a novella, was named a Kirkus Indie Best Book of 2015. He has also written a novel, Model Child, a psychological thriller. He lives with his wife and a spoiled, bossy cat in Connecticut.
