Award-winning poet Ryan Pedro’s second collection takes you on a journey where toxic masculinity wrestles with intense vulnerability, and where porn stars, rap gods and video game characters share a home with Jean-Michel Basquiat and Yukio Mishima. A dry book talk would never contain all this infectious energy, so you are invited to a block party to celebrate this exceptional publication: a gathering for like-minded people where Ryan Pedro will read his poems, and bring the words to life accompanied by strong beats and cold beer. In the parking lot of the Erfurthuis.
