Preview Dreamland Court
Description:
Set in the blighted industrial landscape of the Los Angeles basin, Dreamland Court is an underground love story.
Just out of prison, Johnny Dalton returns home to find his wife Jackie, the mother of his two small children, passionately involved with one of his good friends.
Doing everything in his power to win her back, Johnny blunders his way through one criminal enterprise after another. When the cops pick him up for being the only adult present at a wild teenage party, he's sent back to jail.
The strange thing is, as far as Jackie is concerned, Johnny's maneuvers actually work.
Reminiscent of the pathos in Hubert Selby's Last Exit to Brooklyn, and the comedy of John Synge's The Playboy of the Western World, Dale Herd focuses his astute gaze on lives that are ordinarily invisible, while turning the conventional love story on its head.
"...and I like Dale Herd for prose."
Allen Ginsberg, Poetry Flash
