Bare Life is the third volume in The Eldorado Trilogy, following The Lede to Our Undoing and Ojo. It checks in on the lives of the characters in the first two volumes, forty years after the action left off--though reading the first two volumes isn’t a requirement for understanding events. If The Lede and Ojo are about finding love in a homophobic and HIV-endangered world, Bare Life asks what it means to have survived and even thrived despite those challenges. But it also poses the question, Survived and thrived how? At what cost? And to whom? It wonders, Have we really arrived, or is it just something we tell ourselves? And if what we considered success in early life turned out not to be as satisfying as we hoped or predicted, what did we miss? What would we change? The novel thinks about shifts in the category queer, how it has opened up to a whole host of new ways of being, new identities, and challenges both inside and outside of a queer community in dealing with age, class, gender, race, religion, and other ways of being human.

Donald Mengay grew up in a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio, where he worked in a factory for a time and managed a bookstore. He began writing fiction in his early twenties. He taught Queer and Post-Humanist Lit at the City University of New York for over thirty years, as well as English at the University of Paris, Nanterre. During his years teaching he published several articles of queer criticism in academic journals that include among others Genders, Genre, and Minnesota University Press. He also co-published a book entitled "Dis/Inheritance: New Croatian Photography," from Ikon Press. "The Lede to Our Undoing," his debut novel, was the first in the Eldorado Trilogy; "Ojo" was the second, and "Bare Life," the third. He lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
