Last Saturday night, Coney Island USA visited Webster Hall to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the Mermaid Parade at the group's annual Spring Gala.
Got a very nice review on my Kisser, A Masculine Femininity from Amos LassenDementiuk, Mykola. “Kisser”, JMS Books, 2012.
An Erotic Romance
Amos Lassen
If you follow my reviews, you know that I am a huge fan of Mykola Dementiuk. He writes as it is and shares he grittiness of life that many writers are afraid to touch. While his topics may be controversial, Dementiuk manages to make us aware of some aspects of our lives that otherwise we might not have known. I refer to him as the prose poet of New York in that even though his subjects are not the usual, he writes of them in beautiful language which in itself is an anachronism. He can describe a really terrible scene so that it comes across as a thing of beauty.
Let’s look at “Kisser”, his newest book. Richard, our main character, does not think he is gay “like those other queer boys”. But then one day, his friend Ralphie kisses him in the park, takes him home and Richard discovers something new. He has fallen in love with kissing but he wants more than that (as long as it also includes kissing). What he doesn’t know is that as he accepts his sexuality, he has yet to meet all the different kinds of men that may pursue him. Richard lets his sexuality take him to places he had never been before and he soon finds himself in the very gay Greenwich Village where he met Mt. James, the possible man who can take him where he wants to go.
This is a very sexy and homoerotic read but there is nothing gratuitous here. In developing Richard’s character, we go into his mind and become part of him as he travels on his sexual odysseys. He goes places where many of us have been but he does so in a shorter period of time. He explains that when he received that first kiss, it was like losing his virginity but he says “in fact it wasn’t a loss but a sublime discovery”. That kiss gave him the reason he lived and the reason to continue living. Believe me, this is one story you do not want to miss and as usual, Dementiuk comes through with another wonderful reading experience.
