A Better House for Ritchie
In this comic and tender one-act play, Ritchie and his partner make up bawdy parodies of typical Christmas songs, bicker, make up, bicker, and finally decide they should move on--not from each other, but from the place where they now live. Amid tough competition, Crowder's play emerged as the clear winner of the 2013 Stonewall Chapbook Competition.
City of NO
adventures on land and sea of two gay men in southern US
The City of No
The triad of novellas which make up Crowder's The City of NO take their protagonists, and the reader, on voyages of adventure, passion, tragedy, and self-knowledge. Like Ahab, Keller Hardy chases an aquatic monster of doom; like Odysseus and Jonah, Henry Gereighty roams the varied and perilous world to find a way home. In language by turns surreal, mystical, ribald, analytical, and intimate, Crowder shows us the shattered inner landscape of gay men in the Deep South, survivors of dual devastations, the Genocide (AIDS and homophobia) and the Catastrophe (Katrina). The struggle between love and hatred is enacted in societal rage and in the tenderest human bonds. The epic quest may both exalt and ravage.

Henry Gereighty
Henry Gereighty (playwright, pain junkie, self-loathing homosexual) flees the city of New Orleans to Pass Christian, Mississippi in the wake of a violent hate crime. In his reclusion he finishes his final play, falls into 'like' with a bartender, battles with a neighborhood eccentric, laments to the ghost of Jayne Mansfield, and sparks a friendship with a lawyer in a bar who charges Henry $20.00 to listen to him complain; all the while maturating his plan of ultimate escape from a loveless life that will completely redefine who he is: The Piss Map.
In Irons
"Louis Crowder's IN IRONS is first and foremost a story of love: of boats and the sea, and the confirmed single person's search for connection, for love. The tale of his gay protagonist is not an exclusive tale, but a moral exploration for everyone of the search for love and meaning who does not fit neetly into the nuclear, spouse, two kids and a dog word that is incresingly only a small slice of the human condition. The surprise ending will shock every reader out of complacency and set the them on the path to discover their own loves fully realized
Your Pocket Is What Cures You
In the wake of structural adjustment programs in the 1980s and health reforms in the 1990s, the majority of sub-Saharan African governments spend less than ten dollars per capita on health annually, and many Africans have limited access to basic medical care. Using a community-level approach, anthropologist Ellen E. Foley analyzes the implementation of global health policies and how they become intertwined with existing social and political inequalities in Senegal. Your Pocket Is What Cures You examines qualitative shifts in health and healing spurred by these reforms, and analyzes the dilemmas they create for health professionals and patients alike. It also explores how cultural frameworks,...
