Writing is done by a true professional, sometimes getting carried away, but it fits the story it tells. Learned a lot about the beginning AIDS epidemic. Fenton Johnson will make you care about Larry just as much as he did and you will feel the loss of a great teacher, son and partner with his passing.
This is a bittersweet book about love and loss due to AIDS. One of my favorite simple yet profound passages explains "grief"--how at first, it controls you; but in time, you control it. Two great cities (San Francisco and Paris) provide the setting.
