This collection follows the writer's struggle with masculinity from a small town in upstate New York to a boxing academy in Beijing. As much as it is the story of pain, it is also a journey to healing. For violence is our patrimony, but it is not our destiny. These poems challenge masculinity narratives, and master narratives in general, by reaching toward vulnerability and beauty.--Publisher.
