Summary

My Achilles looks at the man behind the myth and explores both the strength and vulnerability in embracing all the sides of oneself: the complex and the ugly, the bold and the brilliant. With themes of love, hope and yearning, My Achilles aims to be not just a myth, but a legend. So much about queer love and identity has been hidden between parentheses and what is not said. This book attempts to fill in those gaps, so that they are not destined to be repeated over and over.

Words brought to life

Stanley breathes new dimension into his written words, each poem brought to life in this well produced audiobook.

The power of spoken word can be in no doubt here. A collection I will return to again and again.
