Reseña del libro "Modern Man (en Inglés)"

If you could say anything to a parent you'd never met, where would you start? How about "Dear Dad . . ." Kent Leatham's Modern Man offers an intimate outreach to the author's anonymous sperm-donor father: a ghost whose absence represents the best and worst of contemporary masculinity. Combining wry humor and raw grief, and with references ranging from Reddit and Rob Zombie to Shakespeare's sonnets and the Song of Songs, these poems deconstruct toxic gender tropes while lamenting the traumas inflicted on those expected to "take it like a man." Leatham is a new queer voice: a nonbinary Millennial, conceived in the early days of assisted-reproduction technology, raised amidst mass shootings and persistent LGBTQIA+ persecution, and witness to the violent writhings of the patriarchy's dying empire. "I wonder what you would most have wished / for me to learn," their unknowable father is asked, "that you still hold as self-evident / if when I was a dependent / little pink American boy / you'd been there?"
