Nebraska by George Whitmore. First published in 1987 by Grove Press and long out-of-print, Nebraska is a classic underground novel by the gay writer and activist George Whitmore. Craig Mullen, a young boy in Nebraska, gets hit by a car on the way to get groceries on his bike. After having his leg amputated, he is bed-ridden, lonely, bored, and addicted to painkillers. His rare interactions with kids his own age, specifically with a neighbor boy who often spends the night, awaken within Craig feelings to further explore. When Craig’s uncle moves into the family home after serving time in the Navy, a world of hope, pain, mystery, and despair descend upon Craig and the Mullen family, giving the reader glimpses into how gay lives were secretly lived and horrifically extinguished in 1950s rural America. After a life of trauma and yearning, the adult Craig’s search for redemption and clarity ultimately lead him on a circular path. With an unforeseen ending that can only be described with the delicately complicated touch of Whitmore’s enigmatic prose, Nebraska will stay in your mind long after finishing it.

PACES THE CAGE by S*an D. Henry-Smith. S*an D. Henry-Smith’s second full-length book of poems, PACES THE CAGE, lifts off from their previous book by expanding an already-queered language to near breaking point. Through the complexities of Henry-Smith’s personal experiences and the use of a poetically fragmented voice, the literal and metaphorical feel like they are being remixed in real-time. PACES THE CAGE transforms the way we read a book of poetry and often feels like the script of an improvisational live performance, with spontaneous shifts in tone, style, and subject matter offering a mirror to personal and historical narratives of oppression, adversity, the act of speaking, and what it means to be truly heard. Henry-Smith’s occasional inclusion of ambient sounds, stage directions, lighting cues, and an environmentally musical language helps to build a rich auditory landscape that enhances the immersive quality of the poems, creating a deep and evocative experience by this adventurous and endlessly exciting poet.

Behind the State Capitol: or, Cincinnati Pike (50th Anniversary Edition) by John Wieners. John Wieners (1934–2002) was a founding member of the “New American” poetry that flourished in America after the Second World War. After graduating from Boston College in 1954, Wieners enrolled in the final class of Black Mountain College. Following Black Mountain’s closure in 1956, he founded the small magazine Measure (1957–1962) and embarked on a peripatetic life, participating in poetry communities in Boston, San Francisco, New York, and Buffalo throughout the late 1950s and 1960s, before settling at 44 Joy Street on Beacon Hill in 1972, where he was active in the anti-war movement, the Fag Rag publishing collective, the Beacon Hill Free School, and organizations supporting the rights of mental patients. He is the author of seven collections of poetry, three one-act plays, and numerous broadsides, pamphlets, uncollected poems, and journals.
