Dazed and Raving in the Undercurrents is more than a collection of award-winning work by columnist and news editor Tony Simmons. It is also the story of a life -- the journey of a writer, a husband, a father, a human being -- filled with the quiet moments, slapstick comedy, and devastating catastrophes that make up such a journey.For the better part of ten years, Simmons has commented upon life in the unique environs of the Florida Panhandle while delving into universal themes of love, loss, discovery, and hope. This selection of his columns from The News Herald is a career-spanning retrospective that runs the gamut from the absurd to the sublime. News Herald readers have described the work as 'lovely' and 'poignant,' 'powerful and heartfelt.' Simmons has 'a unique way of writing that makes me stop and think,' they have said, and 'a rare talent and a heart that will help and inspire many.' (Perhaps the author’s all-time favorite comment from a reader: 'Sometimes you take my breath away.') Join those who have joined Tony Simmons on his journey. And go in peace.
