Synopsis

In WATCH BOYS Joe Palmer has achieved a rare fusion of memoirist, humorist, storyteller and master of lore. A more exquisitely wrought collection of essays and memoirs would be hard to find. I was in turn touched, amused, and educated. One travels with the author to Bangkok, Montreal. Mogadishu and wherever he has transposed his life experience into masterful prose. - Dr. Richard Selzer, author of THE EXACT LOCATION OF THE SOUL
