"Robert Zimmerman to Bob Dylan, Truman Streckfus Persons to Truman Capote ... Miles Dewey Davis just has to drop the Dewey. In a move equal to the best of these nomenclaturations, Paul Andrew Duffy became Paul Dismas."

-from the Introduction by Padgett Powell

Sample text:

Detective Inspector Silvestre Amoreira sat, a dazed onlooker at his own breakfast table. For a man who was for the better part of his living memory without minutes enough to butter bread or crack an egg, a hot breakfast was less a luxury than a source of suspicion, suspicion of infirmity and decline, of a slow and secret acquiescence to gravity, a quiet deference to the agency of oxidation. Put plainly, when he sat down to those sad kippers, the grit of the bran in their bedded rice polished his teeth like the grain of grave-fill, would stir a tickle in the rustling wasp paper of his airway, a whispery scrape punctuating every swallow. Despondent, he pushed aside his dish and produced a dented tin about the size of a snuffbox, extracting two Captagon tablets and his golden ratio of dihydrocodeine to glutethimide flushed down with thick brassy black tea, two long fingers of arrak because what the hell. The first client was due some time past noon, and the sun had only just crested the grasping horizon, feeble and unwelcome like a cot death, or a wounded cop.

Dismas, Paul: - Paul Dismas was born Paul Andrew Duffy in Ocean Springs, Mississippi on July 24, 1991. He was raised on the bayou between Bayou Lamotte and Bayou Pierre in Gautier, Mississippi. Following Hurricane Katrina's destruction of his family home, he dropped out of high school and moved to live, read, play music and write on the streets of New Orleans. Spending most of his remaining years living in the Seventh Ward, he passed away on July 19, 2020 in New Orleans, the city he loved.
