A Fortunate Son
A Fortunate Son: and Other Stories is a collection of stories written across decades of Daniel J. Donoghue's life-chronicling his journey from youth to the present day. As he has grown, so too has his writing, shaped by the challenges and transformations of life itself.These slice-of-life narratives capture both the deeply personal and the universally human: love and loss, desire and regret, the weight of family, the scars of military life, and the quiet battles with mental illness. With unflinching honesty and lyrical prose, Donoghue explores the raw edges of experience-where tenderness and turmoil coexist.From the dim glow of roadside bars to the silent ache of suburban mornings, no subject is too intimate or taboo. Painted with empathy and precision, these stories invite readers to confront the fragile beauty and painful truths of being human, and to see the shifting colors of their own lives reflected in the work.

Precipice
This is what James Wright called "the poetry of a grown man," engaged by the world and responsive to it. John Donoghue is seeker and a mensch, right down there with us in gritty daily life. His forty-eight free-verse sort-of-sonnets are like turns of a kaleidoscope pointed at memory, mortality, morality, and love, rearranging these great, inexhaustible subjects into surprising, personal configurations. If too many poems seem to you to have too many words about too little substance, here are some that will refresh vour faith that poetry can best express the exhilarating strangeness of being alive for a while on this earth. -- Michael Ryan

Sick and Tired of Feeling Sick and Tired
Consequently, people who suffer from chronic fatigue, chronic pain, and many other miseries often endure not only the ailment but dismissive and negative reactions from others. Since its first publication, Sick and Tired of Feeling Sick and Tired has offered hope and coping strategies to thousands of people who suffer from ICI. Paul Donoghue and Mary Siegel teach their readers how to rethink how they themselves view their illness and how to communicate with loved ones and doctors in a way that meets their needs. The authors' understanding makes readers feel they have been heard for the first time. For this edition, the authors include a new introduction drawing on the experiences of the many people who have responded to the book and to their lectures and television appearances. They expand the definition of ICI to include other ailments such as depression, addiction, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. They bring the resource material, including Web sites, up to the present, and they offer fresh insights on four topics that often emerge: guilt, how ICI affects the family, meaningfulness, and defining acceptance.
