This is Keys most comprehensive collection of poeticals put together to date. The sheer weight of the book is testament to this comprehensivality. Of course it is lighter than something like a Braun fridge or a fat guy. But as a book you will note its of a nice weight.

Keys just happy that someone has bothered to touch it. That is enough for Key (Newswipe). ...
