Customer Reviews

Koestenbaum is the daddy of the mac daddies

Ok, here ya go. I didnt really even read the book.I've been trying to track down my old buddy Rob Helsabeck.I did a google search for his name and I saw that he reviewed this book. Rob if you're out there email me, I havent been able to contact you for the past few years man! Call my brother Bob (he lives in Abscn)...he'll give you my email address. Hope to hear from you.

Already a classic, highly recommended

This character from Boston who keeps giving negative reviews to Koestenbaum wouldn't know poetry if it bit him in the rear. His constant negative attacks lead me to believe that the reviewer is an old boyfriend of the author seeking revenge. At any rate, Anna Moffo is a terrific first book of poetry by a writer who has now been thoroughly established as one of the best young American poets writing. The skillful use of syllabics to frame the author's wild imagination creates the perfect blend of order and chaos.
