Whether his works center on ornithology, education, cultural criticism, or queer literary iconography, Contreras asks the essential questions of his readers. In The Other Side of the Fire, a central question spins on its axle: Who are we, who have we been, and who might we be when measured against machinations of time? The answers in these poems are slippery, often irreconcilable, and always-and importantly-unguardedly human. Sorrow and violence are entwined with their unruly counterparts: the erotic, the everyday, the musical, the animal, the sacred."" - Michael McGriff, author of Angel Sharpening its Beak Author InformationTab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
