An ode to love: The greatest of life’s afflictions.

Stupid Boy Syndrome: 28 Poems on Love, Lust and Loss is a queer-perspective chapbook containing twenty-eight poems on the themes of love and loss, friendship and fall-outs, sex and seduction.

At once heartfelt and whimsical, frivolous and mournful, Stupid Boy Syndrome takes readers on a whirlwind trip through the many ways that love enriches our lives. From the biting ache for the boy that got away; to the skin-tingling thrill of locking eyes across a room; and the soul-tearing battle between logic and lust.
