Reseña del libro "Closer (en Inglés)"

"The last literary outlaw in mainstream American fiction."--Bret Easton EllisWinner of the Ferro-Grumley Award for LGBTQ FictionFrom "the most dangerous writer in America" (Village Voice), Dennis Cooper's Closer is the controversial first novel in the award-winning George Miles Cycle--a haunting exploration of 1980s middle America, alienation, and the very limits of experience, now featuring an introduction by cultural critic Lynne TillmanPhysically beautiful and strangely passive, George Miles becomes the object of his fellow students' passions. One after another, his teenage friends rifle through George, ransacking him for love, secrets, or anything else they can plausibly extract.Closer follows the subterranean connections that drag George into the arms of men like John, an artist who drains his portraits of humanity in order to find what lies beneath; Alex, fascinated by splatter films and pornography; and Steve, an underground entrepreneur who turns his parents garage into a nightclub. Boys and men pass George from hand to hand, fascinated by the nightmarish intensity of his detachment, but soon he will be confronted by desires he may find harder to endure.An unflinching dissection of the horrors of middle America, Closer lays bare a world where pain is an undeniable reality, the inevitable companion of truth, and a test of our commitment to life. Nearly four decades since its original publication, Dennis Cooper's brutally frank and provocative cult classic remains unmatched, continuing to push the limits of our minds and sharpen our understanding of the life around us.
