Sergius Seeks Bacchus is a heartbreaking & humorous rumination on what it means to be in the minority in terms of sexuality, ethnicity, & religion. Drawing on the poet’s life as an openly gay writer of Bataknese descent & Christian background, the collection furnishes readers with an alternative gospel, a book of bittersweet & tragicomic good news pieced together from encounters with ridicule, persecution, loneliness, & also happiness.The thirty-three poems in Norman Pasaribu’s prize-winning debut display a thrilling diversity of style, length, & tone, & telescope out from individual experience to that of fellow members of the queer community, finding inspiration equally in the work of great Indonesian poets & the international literary canon, from Dante to Herta Müller.
