A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Reeve thinks his life is over. His career is at a dead end, his face is a mess, and his landlord is evicting him from his apartment because he made too much noise when a hustler beat him up. As he lies in his hospital bed, figuring our what to do next, he finds himself brooding about the parallel ruin of his old college mentor Tom Slater, a famous American literary scholar who was betrayed and driven to suicide during the McCarthy era.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Sixty-two year old Reeve lies in a hospital bed - the result of a vicious beating. As he convalesces, he constructshistory for the reader, not just for the lives of himself and his mentor, Tom Slater, but of the fifty years of America and the gay experience. This award-winning first novel is now back in print to illuminate a world which for many years has never been known, and yet for some, will never be forgotten.
