4.11 AVERAGE


Awesome honest stuff that I checked out after hearing his interview on Selected Prose earlier in the week. Much like my other read this week it is about simply being and dealing with the changes inherent in yourself. About accepting and trying to move forwards or at least sideways through the mire.

The book centres on the author's experiences of being a gay bartender and growing from being a gay teen. There's family strife in here too, but it is done in a down to earth fashion and not dramatised.

I'll need to check out his novel at some point, but really enjoyed this collection.
