The story of Lucio Cavaliero, a Venezuelan writer andcosmopolitan libertine, is a vibrant and thrilling account ofcarnivalesque exile in New York. Against the backdrop of hishome country’s political turmoil, Lucio drifts from room toroom, bed to bed, living hand to mouth, dragging a sexualsecret (literally) while on the run from Chavez’s henchman.Lust gives way to love and love to a son’s mourning as Lucio visits Italy and Spain searching for beauty and his roots. A modern-day homage to Rabelais and Roth, Portrait of aGentleman is a ribald and erudite meditation on poetry, music,language, and the erotic––a portrait of the artist as a middle-agedrake.
