this book is beautiful. it's a fantastical mystery which unfolds around a gay love story, with issues of homophobia and classism in the characters' lives. my partner and i took turns reading this to each other and found it gorgeous and intriguing, and breathtaking at times. we read it twice (so far). unfortunately a by and large white cast of characters, from what i remember (it's been a while).
