[Exeunt.]

In Raymond Luczak's [Exeunt.], we experience not only how an individual can continue to love through their grief, but also through the deeper history of the AIDS epidemic that devastated the gay community in the 1980s and 90s. These poems are frank and sexual and harrowing, and even sometimes funny, elegizing the gay friends, the queer heroes, and the stories you haven't heard. [Exeunt.] spotlights the complicated brilliance in all of this. As much as Luczak's work honors a specific time, it also resonates with our endurance of a more recent pandemic handled poorly by the administration. [Exeunt.] explores in depth what it meant to survive the AIDS epidemic then and what it means to be a gay man now in the face of so much loss.
