Like a gay Wonder Years, Red Suburb is a poignant collection of memory, love, and longing.
Red Suburb portrays the neurotic beauty of a generation squeezed between the Baby Boomers and Generation X. These poems—ripe with love and wistfulness—scope the bright, innocent Kodak colors of suburbia, then twist like a kaleidoscope, distorting into the very un-American Dream of coming-of-age as a seer, a dreamer, a gay man, and a social iconoclast amidst the abject development of cul-de-sacs and manicured lawns.
