The new poetry collection from Andrés N. Ordorica (picked as an Observer Best Debut Novelists for 2024), Holy Boys seeks to address the echoes of adolescence and the pains of living a life in the shadows of unspeakable desires and all-consuming longing. This collection is for readers who appreciate language and the multilingual power of poetry.
Holy Boys seeks to address the lingering echoes of adolescence and the pains of living a life in the shadows of unspeakable desires and all-consuming longing. These poems are a means of finding language in youth, gathering experience in pubescence, and serving as testament to survival in a world that demands silences throughout queer life.These poems are an archive which maps physical desire and emotional needs while pushing past dogma and self-hating. They are a means of naming the many lovers and loved ones who have helped move the speaker from boyhood into manhood. This is a collection that is informed by faith, sexuality, loss and love, a celebration of the growing pains that eventually allow us to unfurl into whole beings.
