Bughouse Blues - Paperback

by Peter Thompson (Author)

This is a tale of a problematic girlfriend and a much greater quandary: which fork in the career path beckons the young hero? A story of horrible bosses in both directions, and a summer at a mental hospital hoping--amid violence and sloth--to make a difference.
