Poetry. LGBT Studies. Asian American Studies. "R. Zamora Linmark's extraordinary DRIVE-BY VIGILS takes readers on a high-speed chase to the heart of 'today's madness,' where Manila intersects with Hollywood, and where a rap artist might croon pidgin translations of Federico García Lorca at the Korean karaoke bar. This global landscape thrives with conflicted hybridities and memory mestizajes, its speakers world history savvy and fluent 'in the gay lingua of Goth and camp.' Dazzling and dizzying, these startling poems talk back to the collage of pop-cultured contemporary society--a critical reckoning as the 'ghosts of the past start colliding / with demons in the making'"--Rigoberto González.
