I’ll show you mine

Like a no-holds-barred game of Truth or Dare,I?LL SHOW YOU MINE collects the intimate oral histories of everyday people who were bold enough to offer up their innermost secrets to the exceedingly practiced ears of the noted underground poet and social observer Greg Gerding. The immutable need for intimacy connects us as humans yet also tears us apart; each of us defines our own needs differently. By creating a safe space for personal reflection, and by casting a wide net of inclusion?male, female, gay, straight, and people who?d rather not be labeled?Gerding has ventured upon a deep well of human truth, some of it rivetingly eccentric, some of it profoundly universal.
