Description

The love child of The L Word and Brontez Purnell's 100 Boyfriends, with a disaffected flair all its own.


It’s San Francisco in the early aughts, and Howie Song is floundering. His failed projects-as a professional ballet dancer, as a boyfriend, as a friend-have left him forever the “third wheel.” But maybe he likes it that way? Leaping wildly between lovers, centuries, and an ever-changing cultural landscape, Howie might just feel most himself in the fracture.

Delicious, poetic, and delightfully pornographic, Tricyclist is an ode to the “abnormal angles” of people and art. As Howie overcomes his own ambivalences-in large part thanks to two suitors, and a circle of supporters who happen to be lesbians-Joon Oluchi Lee portrays, with his signature flamboyance, all of life’s joys, pitfalls, and pirouettes.
