Kung Fu of the Dark Father presents not only the poet's father, the author's own enigmas, but also a veritable lineage of men confronting what Lorca describes as the duende in art and life--mythology's insistence that one must enter the underworld before there is any hope of bearing light. Here we meet a destruction derby hero, the Rolling Stones, Freud's cocaine habit, Meriwether Lewis' less than heroic return from the great West; St. Augustine, Copernicus, Hemingway's third son--each facing a darkness that poetry helps bear. There are also wild gurus, wandering monks--a terrestrial crew despite celestial aspirations--the human in each of us, with clay feet under a tainted moon.
