Beskrivning

Bruce Boone is a critical figure at the crossroads of late twentieth-century avant-garde and social movement writing. Dismembered is the long overdue collection that spans nearly five decades of Boone’s life, from the early 1970s to the present. Collecting published and fugitive works alike, from poems and narratives to reviews and essays, this volume is crucial for anyone moved by writing that is at once sexy and political, gossipy and militant, scholarly and aesthetic. Praise for Bruce Boone:“Bruce Boone has the perfect cadence of a real writer, part awe, part critique. He can see.” —Peter Gizzi

“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
