BLACKOUTS

An intimate, emotionally rich novel, in which two men young and old reckon with queer histories and their place within them, from the critically acclaimed author of We the Animals. Blackouts is a haunting, dreamlike rumination on memory and erasure, on the ways in which stories sustain histories. Both emotionally and intellectually daring, Justin Torres blends fact with fiction drawing from historical records, screenplays, testimony and image force us to look again at the world we have inherited and the narratives we have received.
