Jeremy Fisher

Jeremy Fisher's new book sees him wrestling with his obsessions, exploring and encountering the world in a range of voices and genres. The personal and political merge in these stories, which often veer on the edge of reality. A simmering gay, BDSM, corrupt Sydney emerges in "The poofter's dog". "On Rosa-Luxemburg-Strasse in a Vietnamese café" and "Mementoes" are meditations on life outside the mainstream and its simplicities and complexities. "Letter to my children" addresses a gay man's spiritual heirs. In "The rotary coconut scraper" a bemused tourist encounters the wrath of the Sri Lankan Army while in "The North German Publishing Company" an author finds his book a success in Germany, but as a comedy, not the tragedy he thought he wrote. The title story, a powerful account of the death of a parent, details the bonds of love and duty between father and son. In this book you will find sex, death, love, blood and lust along with laughter and delight.
