Peddler on the Road: Days in the Life of Willy Sypher

Poetry. Reading PEDDLER ON THE ROAD, you will meet a genuine American hero, the unsung kind that, though all but faded into myth, once invigorated the national landscape, with optimism and faith in the worth of the common man. "Willy Sypher is a vanished breed: the Jewish, Midwestern, traveling purveyor of a menswear line. The poems trace in chronological order Willy's tales of road life: loneliness and lust, prejudice and pals. It takes a certain kind of person to endure the ups and downs of sales. Mr. Brodsky nicely covers the mood swings, the inner life, the existence of someone only as good as his next sale fighting natural and man-made elements for a righteous piece of the pie"--Iconoclast.Louis Daniel Brodsky is the author of 'Peddler on the Road: Days in the Life of Willy Sypher', published 2006 under ISBN 9781568091068 and ISBN 1568091060.
