| Summary |
The eclectic stories in this collection are bound by the threads of desire in its many forms, above all, the desire for love and a place of safety in world where being Black and gay can thwart the fulfillment of that longing. The characters are complex, driven, difficult, and even, at times, unsympathetic, but always compelling. In other words: fully rounded human beings living complicated lives. |
