Reminding me of Anne Sexton in that I feel his words like a plum on my shoulder whose flesh begs to be tasted, Fuchs uses words to undo existing worlds by creating worlds beyond them, slipping the reader into something never articulated and yet coursing through the collective human subconscious. His revelations are naked, soft, shimmering, electric, and find truth living just under the skin. - WILLIE EDWARD TAYLOR CARVER JR., author of Gay Poems for Red States
Between the mesmerising presentation and fearlessly expressive writing, this is a truly stunning book. Yearning for more from this brilliant writer. - D.L. WHITE, author of MeticulousIn The Theoretical Tiger Society, Fuchs bestows upon the reader an intimate mosaic of words that invite the reader into the most personal corners of his mind. - ROBERT A. COZZI, author of kaleidoscope of colors II
The Theoretical Tiger Society...has and is the essence of what it means to root and to branch out into the world of poetics. Fuchs has invited me to think differently...in an open-hearted path that leads me to understand the heart of a poet. ...He has cheered me on all the way through the book, helping me see with his magnanimous poetry that it is possible to break free from the chains of what it means to be a poet and tell [one's] truth. - JAIRO DEALBA, author of Emperor Penguin Our paths crossed many years ago. Poetry was the link that connected us. Over the years I kept a distant eye on what Brian was writing. It came as a huge surprise when he asked me to read his collection of poems. Reading his words reminded me of our connection and the strength in his work. We both use our work as our autobiography. Brian Fuchs let's us into his world with honesty, intimacy, love, lust and humanity. His story is unique. We will find facets of ourselves in his observations and definitions. He is a man full of life. - PAUL LORENZ, artistThe Theoretical Tiger Society is another beautiful poetry collection by Brian Fuchs. It oozes the same sensual lyrical images of his other works, but is somehow heavier in its delivery, like bold impasto strokes on a blank canvas. From the yards of soft peach chiffon that weave through the book to steamy encounters of lust and sex, there is something sweet and endearing about this vulnerable coming-of-age journey of self-acceptance and self-love. - LISA BAIN, author of Heart of a Kingdom
In his fourth poetry collection, Brian Fuchs explores sexuality, longing, and his own journey of identity. The Theoretical Tiger Society is Fuchs at his most personal and intimate. It is a collage of ideas, a melding of various types of intimacy.
Features contributions by Robert A. Cozzi, Max Asbeek Brusse, Jarrod Hol, Kerith Hawkins, Cheryl Couture, & Justin Ward. Also includes a poem by guest poet Jairo Dealba, who has offered a beautiful piece for this collection.
