It's 2005 and Poland's moral crisis escalates as Pope John Paul II approaches death while the country's president makes homophobic declarations. Radek is a bisexual artist convinced that fire is the great stabilizer; he meets Dorota, literature student and budding pyromaniac. Driven by rage and sexual curiosity, they buck Church, government, and the LGBT community to find sexual freedom, escaping their enemies by scaling the crumbling walls and ideas of the city.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arsenal Pulp Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/17\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781551523729\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.64w x 0.38d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Lambda Literary Awards - Finalist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Lambda Literary Awards - Finalist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Triangle Awards - Finalist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/15\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/30\/2010 pg. 29\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Daniel Allen Cox","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51798392012981,"sku":"9781551523729","price":13.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_4f5f2cbc-2748-43eb-a5fb-2c8e9fbaf050.jpg?v=1758638434","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/krakow-melt-9781551523729","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
