1 y separately published work icon Ken Anthony Lawrence , Elizabeth Bay : Life Before Man , 2021 20877461 2021 selected work poetry

'Each stanza of Anthony Lawrence's Ken gradually unveils, with a satirical and compassionate eye, a plastic doll's restricted identity. Ken, the occupant of engendered humanity, is observed in a series of adventures, transgressions, and unresolved intimate encounters. Delightfully humorous and intellectually credible with a melancholy edge, Ken is a book for our times.' (Publication summary)
