From the rear cover

"Campo's background and concerns--he writes out of his identity and experience as a gay Cuban-American physician--make for a rich field of investigations, and his best work is both passionate and formally accomplished. "What the Body Told" dives into the difficult, necessary territory of physical love, desire, contagion, illness; such poems are essential to our moment. We need them."--Mark Doty
