Embrace the provocative, sensual, and unapologetically raw and discover a world of passion and desire in this instant erotic classic. With a masterful blend of literary storytelling and tantalizing eroticism, Matt Richardson takes readers on a captivating journey exploring the alchemy of sex, race, and desire. These all-too-human stories challenge conventions and push many boundaries, ultimately forcing its characters and readers to confront their deepest desires and fears. With its unflinching portrayal of sexuality and the complexities of human relationships, this extraordinary trilogy leaves readers spellbound until the very end.
"Angels is an important new work in Black queer literature and powerful multi-generational meditation on Black gay/queer desire, social life, and masculinity. It feels like the literary love child of Essex Hemphill, Victor LaValle, Marlon Riggs, Tananative Due, David Lynch, and Nalo Hopkinson. The writing is smart, sexy, and juicy. Matt Richardson breathes life into a rotating cast of characters who are compelling, captivating, and complex. The collection made my heart race, made my hair stand up on end, and made me shiver in all the right places. Matt Richardson is an important new voice in this necessary canon."
Courtney Morris, Associate Professor in the Department of Gender
and Women’s Studies at UC, Berkeley. "Matt Richardson's erotic trilogy powerfully illustrates the complexities and contradictions, the pleasure and pain, the beauty and roughness, and the ecstasy and realities of Black genders and sexualities, as they are truly lived. This book represents the best of what imagination as a tool of knowledge contributes to gender and sexuality studies. Artists, activists, scholars, and communities from all walks of life, who care about pleasure, intimacy, and joy, and who view these experiences as integral to the health and wellbeing of all people, let alone Black queer people, should read this book."
