Gossip: A Book of Poems

Poetry. "Reading Thomas Fink's GOSSIP leaves you giddy and satiated, just like a good `dirt' session should! Fink collages fractured dialogue, political farce, pop song lyrics, and tabloid tidbits to make his deliberate music and `tactful oomph.' The poems utilizing the crazy and gorgeous `found speech' of a child are pure delight, elevating chitchat to new poetic heights. I, for one, can confirm this rumor: Fink's GOSSIP is one amazing read"-Denise Duhamel.
