Scotsman & Sodomite, swearier than a sailor, Hal Duncan is the author of Vellum, Ink, Testament, and numerous short stories, poems, essays, even some musicals.
''The Arthurian legend of the Fisher King, the myth of Orpheus,
Shakespeare's Tempest, comic book superheroes, and Twilight are
just a few of the tales that Duncan (Ink) deconstructs through a
prism of queer sexuality, youthful rebellion, and rage against
authority, in this thrilling, funny, and moving collection.'' -
Publishers Weekly (starred review)''Hal Duncan's stories enchant in
every sense of the word. In language as magical as the street
urchins that give the book its title, these tales conjure up a
world in which myths and legends take on flesh, with all the
attendant pleasures and dangers that implies. (And he throws in
some pirates and fairies for good measure!) Tough, tender and
deeply engaging Scruffians! dazzles and delights from beginning to
end.'' - Peter Dube, author of Subtle Bodies
