Revelling in the value of social polyphony from Walt Whitman's "Song of Myself," _Multitudes_ looks at its contemporary theatres of Facebook and Twitter, post-riot police surveillance, protest culture and poetry itself. With wit, perceptiveness and her trademark linguistic sonar, Margaret Christakos

✦ Synopsis
Jonathan Hopkirk, fan número uno de la poesía de Walt Whitman, y Adam "Kurl" Kurlansky, el conflictuado jugador estrella del equipo de futbol americano del colegio, son asignados en la clase de Literatura como compañeros para semanalmente escribirse una carta y así practicar sus habilidades retóricas… una tarea que aceptan con resignación, pues no esperan obtener mucho de esa actividad.
Sin embargo, con cada carta que escriben, comienzan a desarrollar una amistad tan profunda que al final se convierte en amor. Pero las cosas no son tan simples, Jonathan y Kurl tendrán que enfrentarse a la homofobia, al bullying y a los oscuros secretos familiares que los rodean, para defender su relación y protegerse entre ellos.
Una hermosa novela que celebra el amor y la vida con personajes conmovedores y un lenguaje asombroso.
