Description: A new collection of poems examining issues of the poet's Cuban identity, his work as a physician, and his life as a gay man.
Review Quotes: "Rafael Campo's rhymes and iambs construct their music against the edgy, recognizable world his poems inhabit: the landscape of birth and of dying, sorrow and sex, shame and brave human persistence--first and last things, center stage in these large-hearted, open, deeply felt poems."--Mark Doty, author of Sweet Machine
