Review title: Why is this my favorite "Tales" novel?
Product review: As a Tales fan, I've always enjoyed this one the most. Maybe because it charts DeDe's courage and incredible transformation. Maybe it's the way Mouse mulls over whether he's following a cookie-cutter concept of being gay. Or maybe it's the way Maupin revisits his earlier theme of creating one's own "family" and turns it upside-down.Maybe it's just Mary Ann's TV job as a Martha Stewart prototype.In any case, Maupin's ear for dialogue is sharp, and his ability to communicate his characters' frailities really start to gel in this one! It's a wonderful read and a gripping novel.
