“Bruce Boone has the perfect cadence of a real writer, part awe, part critique. He can see.”—Peter Gizzi “Boone is a master of this moment. Where everything that was under the surface—felt just below the surface of a story’s language—emerges suddenly.”—Thom Donovan, Poetry Foundation“With three small books—My Walk with Bob, The Truth About Ted, and Century of Clouds—Bruce Boone established himself as a pioneer of a gay-inflected New Narrative in the 1970s and early 1980s.”—Tyrone Williams, raintaxi“Boone’s easy-going, rare frankness, his thoughtfulness and awareness about the act of writing itself, his candidness and inclusivity about his aims and wishes, all make for a delicious and unabashedly charming writing style.”—Colin Herd, 3 AM Magazine
