9781932195491: Other Fugitives And Other Strangers

Synopsis

Other Fugitives and Other Strangers is a testimony of sexuality in times of violence. This journey into the intimate language of the male body is burdened with danger and desire and expressed through a dark eroticism reminiscent of Garcia Lorca and Cavafy. These provocative and brutally honest poems give voice to both sides of abusive relationships, dismissing easy assumptions about victimhood and shattering the taboo of silence from within the political arena of love between men. Rigoberto Gonzalez is the author of So Often the Pitcher Goes to Water until It Breaks, a selection of the National Poetry Series. A recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and of numerous international artist residencies, Gonzalez has also written two picture books, a novel, and two works of nonfiction, including the memoir Butterfly Boy.
