Recenzii

The author of the critically acclaimed memoir Butterfly Boy: Memories of a Chicano Mariposa, takes a second piercing look at his past through a startling new lens: hunger. The need for sustenance originating in childhood poverty, the adolescent emotional need for solace and comfort, the adult desire for a larger world, another lover, a different body—all are explored in a series of heartbreaking and poetic vignettes.

"An unforgettable portrait of the artist as a young immigrant gay poet. These brief, passionate chapters are filled with rare courage, raw honesty, and the uncommon beauty of a life spent yearning for consolation and hope. Absolutely arresting."—Dinty W. Moore, author of Between Panic & Desire

"A haunting book, whose many senses linger long after reading it."—Mary Cappello, author of Awkward: A Detour

"The compelling story of a life that routinely—necessarily—crosses borders of ethnic, socioeconomic, and sexual identities."—Pablo Miguel Martínez, author of Brazos, Carry Me

"Immigrant and gay readers may experience release in the book's agonizing familiarity; all readers will find it lusciously evocative."—Publishers Weekly
