Uproar’s Your Only Music (Picas Reprint Edition)

In what most consider to be his finest work, Uproar’s Your Only Music presents two sections that retrace the author’s androgynous childhood and beyond, unearthing both laughter and wounds while travelling from the hills of Italy and the back country of China to the magical landscape of the Gulf Islands. This is a song that’s sung with gusto, a dance that goes beyond misadventure and fate, finding it’s own kind of paradise.

An extraordinary book – an extraordinary life… Uproar’s Your Only Music is widely regarded as the author’s most important work. The two sections of this collection (poetry and memoir) retrace the author’s androgynous childhood and beyond, unearthing both laughter and wounds while travelling from the hills of Italy and the back country of China to the magical landscape of the Gulf Islands.
