From the body's first mysterious eroticism to its final humiliation and pain, Gil Cuadros gives voice to both the beauty and sorrow of our common fate. His writing cuts like a double-edged swordat times artful and sharp, at times unfiltered and raw. This is an awesome and haunting book.'David Trinidad';The sensual, the expressive, the daring, the transformed become the matryrs of every era, every family. Their memoirs, heroics are our most devastating works of art. Gil Cuadros's story ';Unprotected' is a classic of AIDS fiction and deserves a place of honor in the mosaic of American writing.'Sarah Schulman';In a voice poised between plainspokenness and urgency, Gil Cuadros writes about the remnants of love in a devastated world. The poems and stories in City of God are as dire as they are beautiful, and sharp as a blow to the body.'Bernard Cooper';I accuse Gil Cuadros of literary seduction in the nth degree He makes me read on when I want to cry I do not want to look at his words, and yet I cannot take my eyes away. His images sooth, burn, inspire. I accuse Gil Cuadros of language abusehis stroke of silk, his pen a bludgeon. I accuse him of heart-bashing.'Wanda Coleman
