Soft cover. Zustand: New. For the first time ever, a selected poetry collection from Emanuel Xavier, renowned LGBTQ poet and one of the Latinx community?s treasures. When he first emerged as a Nuyorican Poets Café slam poet in the 1990s, Emanuel Xavier quickly took his place as one of the first openly queer, celebrated, controve…rsial and significant poets of the era. Now, decades later, as a former homeless teen and a hate crime survivor, Xavier still stands as one of America?s most inspiring and powerful voices. ?A provocative voice of the Latinx liminal space, Xavier takes turns seducing and alerting the reader with a fearless sensuality and a knowing lack of regret. A much-needed, streetwise collection living at the intersection of raw desire and a deep compassion for a marginalized people.? ? Ed Morales, author, journalist, filmmaker, & poet ?Thank goodness we at last get the Selected Poems of Emanuel Xavier! This collection pulses with the necessary urgency we?ve come to expect from this luminary poet. While reading you can feel the clarity of his voice speaking up to you from the page with its razor-blade precision offering insight and humor navigating the multifaceted truths of this world.? ? Sam Sax, poet ?For decades, Emanuel Xavier has been our poet of the streets, of the balls, of the pier, through our loves, lives lost, and in the growth and ruin of our city. Finally a new generation has a chance to breathe through his collected poems, a monument to our past, our collectivity and our hearts.? ? Sarah Schulman, author & activist ?Emanuel Xavier is a blasphemer, and a guerilla poet, whose verses can hurt like bullets. His Selected Poems can be read as the autobiography of an Ecuadorian/Puerto Rican poet who desperately fights to break from ?the mentiras? his parents fed him as he grew up in el barrio, which he acknowledges as his true country. But el barrio can be a cruel world, and Xavier?s subjects are queer people, the transgendered, the powerless and invisible outcasts the American Dream discards as unrecyclable trash. Echoes of Allen Ginsberg?s Howl?in their audacity, their urgency?can be heard in Xavier?s early poetry; but, by the time he arrives at the final poems in this collection, Emanuel Xavier?s anger, and outrage, have been surprisingly replaced by a poignant wisdom. The journey he has so vividly evoked is that of a hero.? ? Jaime Manrique, novelist & poet Poet and activist, Emanuel Xavier was born in Brooklyn, New York, and became involved in the ball scene as a homeless gay teen. Xavier has received recognition as a spoken word artist from national colleges and universities. He has been named an LGBTQ Icon by The Equality Forum and has been presented a New York City Council Citation Award. Xavier has received an International Latino Book Award, Lambda Literary Award nominations and American Library Association Over the Rainbow Books selections for his collections which include: Pier Queen, Americano, If Jesus Were Gay, Nefarious, and Radiance. He is the recipient of a Gay City Impact Award and The Marsha A. Gomez Cultural Heritage.
