A novel in essays, Kennedy’s latest book with New American Press explores the aging body and the eternal heart. “I Am Joe’s Prostate,” winner of a 2008 National Magazine Award, was described by the judges as “essay writing at its best” before it was reprinted in Best American Magazine Writing 2008. The New York Times has described Kennedy’s writing as “shimmering with emotional honesty,” The Cape Cod Voice as “wildly inventive and wickedly comic,” and Junot Diaz has called it “as elegant as it is beautiful, as important as it is profound.”
