Featured interview on Rattlecast

When has geezerhood been handled so appealingly? (Well, except for those movies where Ann-Margret is inexplicably cast as a senior citizen.) Oldguy may exit the Oldguymobile creaking and farting, but comedian-con-simpatico Bill Trowbridge so ably superjuggles hijinks and empathy that, despite all the geriatric odds, a true American hero is born. Don&rsquo;t know a &lsquo;Packard&rsquo; from the &lsquo;Oscar Meyer Wienermobile,&rsquo; or &lsquo;Roundheads&rsquo; from &lsquo;the Blob&rsquo;? Then snap your trap shut, punk, and give a listen: Oldguy&rsquo;s here to save your day.

&mdash; Albert Goldbarth, author of Saving Lives and 



Welcome Oldguy: Superhero&mdash;Bill Trowbridge’s hilarious guide to the perils and sly pleasures of aging. In this reader-friendly collection, Oldguy earns his superhero status when, among other adventures, he takes a driver’s test, gets a physical, and confounds Death himself. Shattering preconceived notions of senescent angst and addled-ness, Trowbridge imbues Oldguy with an enviable inner life full of covert panache. Oldguy: Superhero is an exhilarating read that I didn’t want to put down except to laugh and to shake my seventy-eight-year-old head in admiration. Oh, and Oldguy sings, too. You don’t want to miss that.

&mdash; Ron Koertge, author of Yellow Moving Van



Oldguy: Superhero—The Complete Collection is a banquet of dinner rolls, Jell-O, turkey sandwiches and moonlit ballrooms, Kung Fu and sarsaparilla, Artie Shaw, Moby Dick; one surprise after another, imaginative and beautifully crafted, with enough laughs and charm to make any guy or gal, old or young, roll in imagery to last forever! This collection should come with instructions on how to stop smiling! Dance through these remarkable poems, meet an enchanting group of characters, and fall fast in love with William Trowbridge as he takes you to the top ledge of the Chrysler Building. Get ready to jump off and land on two exuberant feet!

&mdash; Kim Dower, author of Sunbathing on Tyrone Power’s Grave

City In The Clouds

"Powerful, almost Taoist in range, this is an important book and should be read by anyone interested in Mary Magdalene or the early Church."
