African American/Gay
Harris weaves issues of race, sexuality,
identity, and class in this groundbreaking work of fiction that proves that
African-American gay romance has an important place in the literary market.
Harris gives his readers a refreshing view of African-American
achievement, a touching characterization of a man living with AIDS, and a
sensitive depiction of gay/heterosexual friendships that may be rare, but not
unheard of in the world outside of the book’s pages.
An intriguing love-story and a quiet but powerful call to corrective
action.
