What Do We Do When We're Done?

From the author of the groundbreaking collections Some of the Songs, A New Trade and Prayers after Nihilism, and the driving musical and lyrical force behind the SUDs and the Overman, comes What Do We Do When We're Done? Instructions in Song and Soundness of Mind. Equal parts songwriter's manual, autobiographical memoir, philosophical treatise, and ode to his myriad artistic inspirations, What Do We Do... finds Keith Dovoric at his most enlightening, humorous - and candid. For the first time in print, he reveals the stories behind his most celebrated and enduring songs, sharing delicious backstage anecdotes and adventures along the way. Most clearly, this little gem of a book reveals Mr. Dovoric's great loves: family, music, literature, and the magic that is the creative process - a must-have for music fans, aspiring songwriters, and admirers of the printed word. This specially-priced edition features the bonus volume, Veritas Victoriam: The Last of the Lyrics, the inclusion of which brings Mr. Dovoric's published total of songs to well over 500. Evocative, intellectual and finely-wrought, these new lyrics demonstrate once again why Dovoric is undoubtedly the last of a dying breed: a songwriter's songwriter who places a premium on the printed word as a complete mode of artistic expression.
