Long Division

Rudy Kikel

"Kikel is, in the tradition of Oscar Wilde, stylish, elegant and clever."


--Publishers Weekly


It is said that relationships are truly holy, that through relationships we find ourselves. In "Long Division," we journey with the poet through his relationships in search of identity and self. We feel his gayness devastating his childhood, alienating him from family, neighborhood, and church. We follow a life in which lovers and friends come and go. We discover his story. "Long Division" is about communion with others and with ourselves. It gives continuity to our identities, making a whole a gay boy and his image to drag in a mirror, making holy a boy playing "teasing Salome" to (his) own/beholding Herod.
