Title: Beautifully written, poignant and disturbing at times.
Product review: No, Ms Denwell, I'm not a "friend" of the author. Rather, an avid reader who "can" appreciate a beautifully written novel when presented with one. I found the situation very true to life with multifaceted characters with which a reader can really get involved. I think I would easily recommend this book to my gay AND straight friends for a real glimpse into a world that perhaps they've never encountered. The character of Vince represents a modern day "Peter Pan" - abandoned, unloved and unable to love in turn. One of the lost boys that unfortunately populate many of our big city streets. They come into our lives and as quickly disappear, leaving us to wonder whatever became of them, but richer for having known them. I'm eagerly awaiting Mr. Healey's next book.
