The first omnibus collection of Tea's poetic output—reflective themes of unrequited love and languor, hopes and heartbreak, prostitution and destitution fill every page with immediately accessible narrative lines. Tender, yet tough, and very, very good. "Tea writes with a raw-hearted, wry but wide-eyed ebullience, rendering dyke bohemia with intense, gritty, glittering romanticism." —San Francisco Bay Guardian
