This New Breed: Gents, Bad Boys & Barbarians 2

In this new collection, editor Rudy Kikel offers the best of the new breed of gay male poets whose lives and experiences are as varied as their poetry. From love poems to performance pieces, Kikel has selected a generous variety of voices. Informed by history, culture and the ongoing discourse about AIDS, these poems are incredible journeys with contemporary gay men.

"It's usual for an older generation to dismiss younger poets as inept, but this anthology should take care of that putdown. Sharp, inventive, tender, hilarious, these aspirants somehow manage to be both fresh and expert. The future of American gay men's poetry is in good hands."

--Alfred Corn, Stake: Selected Poems, 1972-1992

"This anthology is a revelation! Kikel welcomes and defines a new generation of gay poets… they've got the skill, imagination, and balls to answer the nitty-gritty questions about what's really going on…. Best of all, these poems are fun to read." --Edward Field, Counting Myself Lucky: Selected Poems 1963-1992
