<p><strong>Song for My Baby and Other Stories</strong> is best described as a work with great variety.&nbsp; What begins with the sudden demise of a father on a hunting trip transforms into a collection that deals with mental illness, hitting bottom, and an appreciation for those who stick around in the worst of times. Bremicker takes readers for a ride with no degree of certainty: From a high stakes golf game to pay off a son&rsquo;s cocaine debt, a dating service that results in twelve dates in twelve months, a kidney transplant, a heart attack, a relapse on alcohol, to years in an out of psych wards and veterans&rsquo; homes, the book shifts gears from story to story.&nbsp;</p>
