PLAYTHING OF THE GREAT GOD KAFKA by Roger Hudson

Roger Hudson’s third collection of poetry ranges widely over a lifetime of varied experience, from autobiographical narratives to contemplations of social and political developments, observational experiments and mood pieces. The title poem takes off from those disturbing times in life when a close friend suddenly becomes an outright enemy, with absurdist author Kafka elevated to the status of god, imagined as the one to blame much as the ancient Greeks blamed their gods.
