Unflinchingly, he explores the possibilities of a gay -perspective while exploding the assumptions of a straight alphabet. A Few Sharp Sticks will be a different book for every reader...'\" - STUART ROSS, author of Snowball, Dragonfly, Jew \"...here are twenty-six sharp sticks, riffs on sentences from a law book on voluntary associations, each begetting its (lower-case) companion, together generating a loose set of not-quite-voluntary associations, little time-bombs... Brian Dedora has crafted a genuine contribution not just to the body (and mind ) of Gay writing, but to Canadian writing and indeed to writing itself. A Few Sharp Sticks teaches us something of how to lead our lives, how to feel, how to think.\" - PETER QUARTERMAIN, Emeritus Professor of English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 86\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.21 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 03, 2012\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42715080949823,"sku":"9781551281537","price":34.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/1a399fd5d555acdf07d80a3c05b1d91f.webp?v=1765070249","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/a-few-sharp-sticks-trade-paper-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
