Reviews

Adarro Minton is a fascinating writer of great power and will; his stories move the soul and warm the mind.
Allex Spires

Adarro’s work is brassy, insightful, brazen, and uniquely refreshing. You’ll find his writing utterly filled with ingenuous, unambiguous prose: his realism will make you lose yourself among the pages and you will long to return to his writing again and again. After reading Adarro’s work I can’t imagine walking away from his writing and forgetting about what I have read and you too, will carry his stories with you.

Minton's voice resonates with a tough and still tender realism. He gives spirit and flesh to the disenfranchised.
Marlene Rosenfield-Crawford

Richly atmospheric, Adarro Minton’s writing tenaciously captures quotidian details in a fresh and unique way, so much so that life’s seeming invisibilities become whole new worlds worthy of contemplative attention.

Forgiven

He bathes for me

on the tops of mountains

under full moon sky fire.

He pulls off clothes for me.

He raises legs and points and curls, and points and curls, and points and curls his toes,

an arabesque,

honey blue music drag, naked,

deep dances under midnights’ sliding black satin.

My bare hand holding him,

on dark corners, his night beauty spilling

rubies from his veins and repairing contracts torn

and tossed from my table.
