Poetry. LGBTQIA Studies. "Wray's poems are wry luxury items of intelligence, sheathed in the latent double of speech, where a word like family might mean, in the queer parlance, refuge, but also, refutation. This is an interrogative, primal, mythic collection, a poetry of privacy and disclosure, of contradiction, a disabused landscape under 'razor-wire stars.'"--Randall Mann "NO DOUBT I WILL RETURN A DIFFERENT MAN explores how complicated relationships between fathers and sons cast long shadows over the future self. In Wray's poems, eros shades at times uncomfortably into social violence and self-abnegation, making this book both love song and elegy to masculinity and its performances, to queerness, and to self-invention. Wray's sharp-eared lyrics move between the darkly campy and the sublime, proving that paternal elegies themselves are 'queer things' whose shifting modes allow him to investigate the limits of fatherhood itself."--Paisley Rekdal "Situated in the long posterity of one of the most infamously shattered queer lives, this tense excavation of Alan Turing, this careful and sumptuous overlay of men's secrecies and assignations seventy years apart, is fascinating. NO DOUBT I WILL RETURN A DIFFERENT MAN delves for origins, stirs encryption with erotics, and makes 'caught looking' palpable in its thrill and thrall."--Brian Blanchfield

“It was surprising what old experiences remembered could do to a presumably educated, civilized man.” And Hugh Denismore, a young doctor driving his mother’s Cadillac from Los Angeles to Phoenix, is eminently educated and civilized. He is privileged, would seem to have the world at his feet, even. Then why does the sight of a few redneck teenagers disconcert him? Why is he reluctant to pick up a disheveled girl hitchhiking along the desert highway? And why is he the first person the police suspect when she is found dead in Arizona a few days later? Dorothy B. Hughes ranks with Raymond Chandler and Patricia Highsmith as a master of mid-century noir. In books like In a Lonely Place and Ride the Pink Horse she exposed a seething discontent underneath the veneer of twentieth-century prosperity. With The Expendable Man, first published in 1963, Hughes upends the conventions of the wrong-man narrative to deliver a story that engages readers even as it implicates them in the greatest of all American crimes.

A Man among Other Men examines competing constructions of modern manhood in the West African metropolis of Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire. Engaging the histories, representational repertoires, and performative identities of men in Abidjan and across the Black Atlantic, Jordanna Matlon shows how French colonial legacies and media tropes of Blackness act as powerful axes, rooting masculine identity and value within labor, consumerism, and commodification. Through a broad chronological and transatlantic scope that culminates in a deep ethnography of the livelihoods and lifestyles of men in Abidjan's informal economy, Matlon demonstrates how men's subjectivities are formed in dialectical tension by and through hegemonic ideologies of race and patriarchy. A Man among Other Men provides a theoretically innovative, historically grounded, and empirically rich account of Black masculinity that illuminates the sustained power of imaginaries even as capitalism affords a deficit of material opportunities. Revealed is a story of Black abjection set against the anticipation of male privilege, a story of the long crisis of Black masculinity in racial capitalism.

An enraged New York mob boss sends hit men to find a seaman who killed his son in a barrom fight. One demented killer in particular leads the chase over land and sea to hunt down the Able Bodied Seaman. They both know the boss's son was killed in self defense, but that doesn't seem to matter. Throughout the chase the gullible seaman changes and primitive survival instincts surface. The final confrontation takes place in India where a balance of power is established and a metaphysical force takes over to make the necessary inevitable changes.
