With a Jersey slant and a Boomer bias, Honk examines everything from turnpikes and optometry to Medicare and Mick Jagger. Tony's words indict, enlighten, and entertain as he takes you to one scene after another, then leaves you to ruminate and reflect.

Honk is a true pleasure. Tony Gruenewald's narrative voice in poem after poem is that of your smart, seasoned friend who, despite all he's been through, has retained a keen sense of humor, a kind of shield and a kind of grace. These poems are layered with insight and wit, driven by engaging storytelling, and paced by a well-considered economy of language. Gruenewald's ostensible subjects: driving, baseball, family, and lots of New Jersey. But the deeper work he's doing is all about that big question with which so many of us wrestle: how to survive with a sense of beauty-a core of wonder-still intact. Enjoy this ride. Gruenewald has already paid the tolls ahead of you.
