Winner of the Ferro-Grumley Award--twice!--author Trebor Healey's work thoroughly captures the poignant and erotic life of gay men. In Eros & Dust, his newest short story collection, Healey sets loose an unforgettable cast of characters. There’s the meth-addled youth bent on redemption by returning to New Orleans in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, a mischievous imp who finds himself emotionally drawn to his victims, and a circus clown fleeing his Mexican trapeze artist lover by escaping to Argentina. If that’s not enough, you’ll find an elusive faun of the Oaxacan highlands, a traveler expiring from dengue fever, and a revisionist Jack Kerouac, along with troubled chickenhawks and ambivalent lovers trying to work it out in chatrooms, Chile, a junkyard, and a puppet theater. "The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls," said Pablo Picasso. Healey reminds us that we should then moisturize with daily helpings of lust and sensuality.

Trebor Healey is the author of three novels, two short story collections, and a book of homoerotic poetry. He has received a Lambda Literary Award, two Publishing Triangle awards and a Violet Quill award. He lives in Los Angeles and Mexico City.

"All in all, Eros and Dust is rather ambitious. The stories are constructed of thick, revealing narratives that offer a great deal of insight about the heroes and hapless within its pages." - Michael Graves for Lambda Literary

"In his new fiction collection, Eros and Dust, world traveler and provocative poet Trebor Healey gives us many vivid realms, a wealth of intense, strange, and perverse stories, all glowing with desire." - Jeff Mann, author of The History of Barbed Wire and Country

by Trebor Healey

One morning Gilberto Rubio wakes up with a five o'clock shadow. Puberty. But why are his legs getting so furry? And what are these little horn nubs pushing out of his scalp? What's that nub of a tail that's making it so hard to sit on anything but couches? His peers begin to treat him like a freak, while his anxious mother Lupita crosses herself and worries about his eternal soul and what might be happening to it. When his mere presence begins to stir the hormones of anyone nearby and the pregnancy rate suddenly skyrockets at Buenaventura High, Gilberto panics, and hopping aboard his skateboard vanishes into Hollywood before hitchhiking out of Los Angeles to find a mysterious stranger he met online who just might have some answers. Award-winning author Trebor Healey has written a new urban fairy tale.
