This breathtaking book charts the landscape into-and out of-the world of \"gay cure\" and reparative therapy. Having undergone treatments, therapies, and exorcisms for gagging the gay in him, Pádraig Ó Tuama pushes past gods and devils and searches for language that might offer safety. At the core of this collection is a breathtaking erasure poem written in response to the Vatican's statement on the blessing of same-sex unions. With dexterous use of form and voice, \u003cem\u003eFeed the Beast\u003c\/em\u003e explores registers of rage and resilience. Whether in parable, narrative or song, whether in tenderness or fear, the reader encounters poems that are honed, necessary and-finally-hopeful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Broken Sleep Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50616904155410,"sku":"9781915079527","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_25213432-a3c0-40ea-bd01-016fcf9e4024.jpg?v=1732511153","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/feed-the-beast-9781915079527","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
