Poetry. "WHY AM I SO BROWN? is a compelling scenario of ideals and cultural activism. Trinidad's signature poem 'Let Us Stop This Madness' sets the tone for a plurality of global political justice. Through an integration of barrio rhythm and street orality, he finds identity and culture. His sensitive and mature hand captures a consciousness that is a framework for aesthetic realism and change. In this, Trinidad's fifth book, his sense of humanity has gelled into completeness. This is a must read for anyone who will take the challenge to investigate this form we call poetry"-Ron Allen, Horizons in Poetry, Detroit, Michigan.

Poetry. "In NOTES ON A PAST LIFE, David Trinidad exorcises the ghosts of New York with a compulsively readable, wrenching memoir in verse. His "Goodbye to All That" offers a critique of ambition, an ode to community, and a sip of the poison that poetry is, in the end, the antidote to." Eula Biss "David Trinidad's poems in NOTES ON A PAST LIFE are breathy and breathtaking. Forgoing traditional formal gestures, these memoir-verses burst with energy, finding their own shapes. No one writes nostalgia like Trinidad. He chronicles friendships with poets and the influence of poets who came before. He chronicles a glorious love affair and its aftermath, bad jobs, art, ambition, fame, 9/11, AIDS, dreams, meals, real estate, ghosts, lyrical gossip, the slights that haunt us, and the hurts we rise above. NOTES ON A PAST LIFE is a mature, wise, and enlightening book." Denise Duhamel "This reader was depressed by the rancorous settling of scores but exalted by the homage paid to the great dead a record of lived life, every second of it, and a love letter to New York (a letter written after a disappointing but gripping affair)." Edmund White "NOTES ON A PAST LIFE catalogs in "Trinidadian" detail an outsider's relationship to the insider world of New York City poetry cutthroat parties, fragile egos, heartbreaking losses, as many endings as beginnings. Trinidad refuses the safe distance of "the speaker" in these autobiographical, intimate (sometimes searing) poems. This is a book for outsiders and insiders, for romantics and cynics. Some will be pissed. Some will be thrilled. And everyone will be "dishing" (as poets do) about this astonishing book, afraid to admit how much they love it." Aaron Smith"

The irreverent, tweetable, ludicrous, painful, wondrous work of the L.A. punk poet--widely available for the first time. In Punk Rock Is Cool for the End of the World, David Trinidad brings together a comprehensive selection of Ed Smith's work: his published books; unpublished poems; excerpts from his extensive notebooks; photos and ephemera; and his timely "cry for civilization," "Return to Lesbos" put down that gun / stop electing Presidents. Ed Smith blazed onto the Los Angeles poetry scene in the early 1980s from out of the hardcore punk scene. The charismatic, nerdy young man hit home with his funny/scary off-the-cuff-sounding poems, like "Fishing" This is a good line. / This is a bad line. This is a fishing line. Ed's vibrant "gang" of writer and artist friends--among them Amy Gerstler, Dennis Cooper, Bob Flanagan, Mike Kelley, and David Trinidad--congregated at Beyond Baroque in Venice, on LA's west side. They read and partied and performed together, and shared and published each others' work. Ed was more than bright and versatile: he worked as a math tutor, an animator, and a typesetter. In the mid-1990s, he fell in love with Japanese artist Mio Shirai; they married and moved to New York City. Despite productive years and joyful times, Ed was plagued by mood disorders and drug problems, and at the age of forty-eight, he took his own life. Ed Smith's poems speak to living in an increasingly dehumanizing consumer society and corrupt political system. This "punk Dorothy Parker" is more relevant than ever for our ADD, technology-distracted times.
