Sumario: | This impressionistic memoir offers images of a life in progress, including scenes from Boyer Rickel's rural Tempe, Arizona, childhood in the 1950s; his relationship with a physically shrinking father; his eccentric teenage friendships; his growing awareness of his sexuality among young, Hispanic gay men; and a trip through Italy with his partner. A personal book, but also wholly universal, Taboo investigates the way one man breaks through taboos and becomes a self-realized adult. (Adapted from publisher's description) An Arizona author poet offers an impressionistic memoir, using poetic techniques to chronicle episodic rites of passage in his life. |
