Luke Sullivan just released his second book, titled "Thirty Rooms To Hide In: Insanity, Addiction and Rock 'n' Roll in the Shadow of the Mayo Clinic." AUTHOR STATEMENT: "'The Shining,' ... but funnier. That's about the best way I can describe the book. It's the story of growing up with my five brothers in a big dark house in Minnesota back in the '50s and '60s. Even with winters raging outside and our father raging inside, we still managed to have a wildly fun, thoroughly dysfunctional time growing up, thanks to the protection of our mother. With dark humor as the coin of our realm, and the Beatles as true north on our compass of Cool, we made movies, started a rock & roll band, and wise-cracked our way though a grim landscape of our father's insanity, Eisenhower's Cold War, fallout shelters, and JFK's assassination."
