Donkey Gospel: Poems

by Tony Hoagland

Donkey Gospel: Poems Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Winner of the 1997 James Laughlin Award of The Academy of American PoetsIn his second collection of poems, Hoagland's generous effervescence and a jujitsu cleverness sparkle through line after line confronting negotiation and compromise, gender and culture, sex and rock music, sons and lovers, truth and beauty, and so forth. From the boy who speaks only in "Kung Fu" dialogue to the guy who visits a lesbian bar and sees his mother, this often funny and always thoughtful book of poems offers fresh, surprisingly frank meditations on the credentials for contemporary manhood.
