About Aftermath:

"Hindsight opens the door to insight in Thomas March's AFTERMATH, an emotionally intelligent book that invites us to mine the rubble of 'this world / that always wants repair.' The natural rhythms of iambic pentameter pace the heartbeat of this journey toward queer identity, troubled masculinity, and those unsettling truths that illuminate and disorient consciousness, like 'dark stars against the warm, awaiting light.' A superb debut."
—Rigoberto González
