Cowboy erotica meets Kathy Acker in this smart, raunchy look at a
queer sexual awakening Part memoir, part literary study, part
formalist exercise in excitement, a transgressive text of pleasure,
bodies, the Lord, and the West. In this post-gender,
post-sexuality, queer prairie Decameron, Steacy Easton’s sexual
anxiety becomes textual anxiety. This is a messy history of Mormon
missionaries, Anglican boarding schools, the back rooms of prairie
bars, Montreal classrooms, and the many religious spaces that have
tried to snuff out queer desire while turning a blind eye to abuse.
These are provocative tales to turn on, offend, and sentimentalize.
Easton explores the seminal texts of their sexuality, from Frank
O’Hara to Neil LaBute, Kip Moore to Lorelei James, and delves
into their own encounters as they came of age. These daddy lessons
are blunt about the ambivalences of trauma and the pleasures of
disobedience, slippery and difficult, reveling in the funk of
memory and desire.
