The Complete Book of
Kong, by William Trowbridge, gathers the poetic wit, woe, and wisdom
of both new and favorite Kong poems from Trowbridge's books as well as
numerous literary magazines and anthologies into a collection that will
rattle your cage. Kong is hip and horrendous, always terribly in
love with a small screaming blonde, and still bearing the biggest,
brightest heart that Hollywood has ever broken. Kong treads
fortissimo where mortals fear to go and holds forth in these poems
with the fresh, no-nonsense voice that makes Trowbridge one of poetry’s
most cutting edge bards.
