Downward Facing Doug: Lost Angeles & Bone Idol

DOWNWARD FACING DOUG features author David Louden's alter ego Doug Morgan in two roman a clef adventures LOST ANGELES & BONE IDOL plus SHORT STORIES THAT ALL DEFINITELY HAPPENED: DEATH RRP $19.99 A SHORT STORY FOR CREATIONISTS & THE GREATEST COCK THAT EVER LIVED LOST ANGELES Full time whiskey enthusiast Doug Morgan is on a downward spiral. Over the past two years the Irish man has played witness to the slow and steady decay of his life and he's finally called time. Haunted by an unacknowledged pain Doug swaps the white collar nine to five of Belfast for one last charge into oblivion in the City of Angels. A scotch-soaked stranger in a strange land Doug befriends a series of like minded and self destructive vagabonds who, like him, are aiming for chaos. In a city that sees thousands of people per year come to be discovered why has one man come to get lost? BONE IDOL The sophomore follow-up to LOST ANGELES is the semi-biographical tale of author David Louden's alter-ego Doug Morgan as he struggles to connect with his father Jack, his mother Ruth and the working class ideology of "a real job". From his early adventure filled days in Poleglass through to the alcohol induced haze of his early twenties Doug's life (much like the city) is one at conflict with itself. BONE IDOL is filled with humour, sex, guilt and the shameful dream of a boy wanting to create more than a family of haunted heirs.
