As he grows older, Geryon escapes his abusive brother and affectionate but ineffectual mother, finding solace behind the lens of his camera and in the arms of a young man named Herakles, a cavalier drifter who leaves him at the peak of infatuation. When Herakles reappears years later, Geryon confronts again the pain of his desire and embarks on a journey that will unleash his creative imagination to its fullest extent. By turns whimsical and haunting, erudite and accessible, richly layered and deceptively simple, Autobiography of Red is a profoundly moving portrait of an artist coming to terms with the fantastic accident of who he is.<\/p>\n<p>A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK OF THE YEAR<br \/>National Book Critics Circle Award Finalist \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Anne Carson is, for me, the most exciting poet writing in English today.&#8221; &#8211;Michael Ondaatje<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A profound love story . . . sensuous and funny, poignant, musical and tender.&#8221; &#8211;The New York Times Book Review<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A deeply odd and immensely engaging book. . . .
