The breadth of Homogium speaks for itself. From 'Homage to Comrades,' written for the third LGBT March on Washington, to 'Archetypes of War,' penned in Europe in 1995 as a witness to the flood of refugees from the Bosnian conflict, to 'Dec. 14th, 1980,' commemorating John Lennon’s Central Park memorial, this poetry collection broaches imagery with skilled language. From the depths of the Grand Canyon to the visceral cold of Toronto winters homage is paid to the anarchy of time, the passing of one’s parents, the struggles for identity and the pangs of requited and unrequited love.Tobias Maxwell is the author of two novels, The Sex and Dope Show Saga and Thomas, and a memoir, 1983: The Unknown Season. His undergraduate alma maters include St. John’s College in Annapolis, Maryland, and the University of California at Riverside. He has a master of science in counseling from California State University, Sacramento.

    Jennifer Chrystie
    ‘There’s a touch of both Dickinson and Larkin in Jennifer Chrystie’s mature exhumation of the tales and tropes of family. Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner

That August, I had left behind my lover -- a married woman more than twice my age -- back in my hometown of Cornwall, assuming our romance had run its course. But that would prove naïve. We really were that in love.Theatre school presented more complica...

We were eating breakfast when Coo passed me a copy of Smithsonian Magazine....
