Jack Parlett explores the poetics and politics of cruising, a queerly ekphrastic practice, at the intersections of gender, race, and class. Moving between past and present, words and images, close reading and close looking, The Poetics of Cruising explores the enduring appeal of cruising without nostalgia.” Fiona Anderson, author of Cruising the Dead River: David Wojnarowicz and New York’s Ruined Waterfront REVIEWS: The Gay and Lesbian Review, Arts Fuse Paperback https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58ffb7da579fb3ffdb7643b8/f8d60539-d39f-4151-b021-9dce94a13ebb/Screenshot+2023-05-02+at+14.48.53.png Books - Fire Island Granta/Hanover Square Press, 2022 Shortlisted for the Polari Book Prize 2022 Best Books of 2022, New Yorker Best Books of 2022, BBC Culture New York Times "Editor's Pick" An Advocate Best LGBTQ+ Book of 2022 A groundbreaking account of New York's Fire Island, chronicling its influence on art, literature, culture and queer liberation over the past century.
