Negative Positive
Title: Worked in the 70's ... but now??
Review: My 2nd reading, after nearly eighteen years. I'm not sure how this can be called a novel, as it is so obviously the autobiography of Mr. Tobias, under the pen name of John Reid. It is insightful concerning the thought patterns of small children who grow up knowing they are somehow different, but I found his intolerance for gay people in general, when that is what he is aspiring to, to be irritating and downright obnoxious. He is dreadfully afraid of being associated with anyone who doesn't fit his idea of the perfect gay man: collegiate, handsome, white.
Is the review positive or negative?
