Stubble Burn is David Ly’s first-ever chapbook publication, which laid a foundation for Mythical Man. Though no longer available, Stubble Burn went into six printings at Anstruther Press and was widely and positively received.
Praise for Stubble Burn
Stubble Burn is the beginning, one imagines, of many things: an intriguing and fruitful literary career for Ly, and also of a conversation between queer poets of various racial identities and generations. Where previous “gaysian” poets asked the question, what about me? in response to white gay male self-obsession, work such as Ly’s moves the dialogue forward by asking, what shall I become?

Stubble Burn expresses a desirable development of the individual, which includes facing the other with all its difficulties and rewards.
