Intimate Traps
Literary/Speculative LGBTQ Erotic Fiction
Telepathy; androids; polyamory; seduction. These are some of the defining elements of INTIMATE TRAPS, a literary novella with a speculative edge set in the fictional town of Bardo, MA (home to the fictional Bardo College of Liberal Arts). It narrativizes the intertwining of the lives of six main characters: Sky (a graduate art student in the final year of their degree program); Araceli (a Spanish immigrant and clean energy analyst); Bud (a faculty applicant to the Bardo College Art Department); Chad (a prototype human-passing android who seems to be working every job in town); Mave (an editor at a successful literary press); and Luis (Sky’s fellow graduate student in art).
