Riassunto

"[A] clear-eyed, queer exploration of urban characters and dilemmas from the perspective of the talented African-American New York Poet, playwright, and fiction writer, Austin Alexis. In free verse and prose poems, Alexis offers an enticing palette of ordinary and outré people who populate New York ... a fine chapbook, well worth perusing." — CLIFTON SNIDER, Author of The Alchemy of Opposites (Chiron Review Press, 2000)

"Wow. You have a winner with Austin Alexis. What a wonderful poet, and what an elegant, simple, lovely book." — MARY OROVAN, former Features Editor of US Camera Magazine,
