About this title

Review

Anderson deals with sex and love, usually from the homosexual male perspective....quite enjoyable...because [the poems] escape the confines of delineated sexual preference and allow the reader moments of personal reminiscence.... -- Wayne Edwards, Lip Dink

Anderson's poetry...has a sure sense of imagery.... There are also several fine elegies...very fine poetry.... -- M. Daphne Kutzer, Lambda Book Report

I would be surprised if it doesn't make its way into the 'Lammys.' Books like this should not just be read. They should be appreciated, for they touch our minds and souls.... -- Jesse Monteagudo, Community Voice

Ken Anderson's poems are full mature works with a current immediacy.. Anderson's work is passionate and heartfelt.literary art. -- Harry Musselwhite, The Rome News Tribune

The Intense Lover dares to examine male passions as they are, making no apology as he celebrates the erotic spirit that fills him.. He doesn't always understand his (and his willful cock's) carnal urges, but he never loses his awe for the male beauty he craves. It's this kind of uplifting and dignified outlook.that distinguishes real art.. (Lance Sterling, Beau): -- Lance Sterling, Beau

This is a poetry extolling the masculine spark...the rough edge of reality. This man is proudly homophilic.... -- David Castleman, Dusty Dog Reviews

fine...very touching-- and sometimes most humorous.... -- Francis Shelden, The Acolyte Press, Amsterdam
