Title: No Mincing, No Whinging, No Coming of Age
Review: I am weary of stories about gay men that feature teens "coming of age," or rejects from 1970's Fire Island, or fashion designers ... etc. I want real people I can relate to. Like "Liquor" by Poppy Z. Brite (whose quote led me to it), "The Concrete Sky" is a book about interesting adult characters who happen to be gay, not hot-pink rainbow-flagged GAY CHARACTERS. Chad and Jonathan came alive for me, and while their adventures may be a little far-fetched, it's fiction - it's supposed to involve flights of fancy. An enjoyable book. I await Moore's next, er, outing.
