The term ‘queer’ has evolved to describe a broad spectrum of non-normative ideas, identities, and overall approach to life. Embracing the ‘strange and peculiar’, Queer Poets Society focuses on the niches of poetry that deserve to be brought to light. Featuring poetic analysis, readings of famous queer poets, and interviews with local poets from all walks of life, Mars Tarassenko is dedicated to highlighting the intersection of identity, ideology, and, of course, poetry.

No voice is unwanted, representation is key to self discovery. In today’s episode of QPS, Mars Tarassenko is joined by Renata Pérez-Hernández in exploring the intersectionality of Latine and Queer identities in poetry and literature. Join us as we pad the reading list for our roomie book club and share stories of our personal experiences with recognizing ourselves in the works we read. We discuss Benjamin Alire Saenz’s novel Aristotle & Dante Discover the Secrets of The Universe along with his poem To The Desert.
