In 1933, Merian C. Cooper, Ernest Schoedsack, and Willis O'Brien created more than movie magic. King Kong is a pop-cultural icon and a central part of American mythology. But more than just another "Beauty and the Beast" tale, Kong Unbound also allows us to examine such themes as:

* The Great Depression and America's place in the world
* Kong as Avatar of Repressed Sexual Energy
* Kong as a Symbol of Slavery and Racism
* Kong as Alternate Paleontology
* The Triumph of Technology over the Natural World

These themes and more are explored in this wonderful collection of insightful essays by:

Ray Harryhausen

Ray Bradbury

Karen Haber

Richard A. Lupoff

Christopher Priest

Robert Silverberg

Jack Williamson

Harry Harrison

William Stout

Paul Di Filippo

Esther M. Friesner

Howard Waldrop

Frank M. Robinson
