Inhalt
»Prayers for Bobby«, nominated for the 1996 Lambda Literary Award, is the story of the emotional journey that led Bobby Griffith to a tragic conclusion. He was an all-American boy, and he was gay. Faced with an irresolvable conflict - for both his family and his religion taught him that being gay was »wrong« - Bobby chose to take his own life. But this is also the story of Bobby's mother, a fearful churchgoer who first prayed that her son would be »healed«, then anguished over his suicide, and ultimately transformed herself into a national crusader for gay and lesbian youth. As told through Bobby's poignant journal entries and his mother's reminiscences, »Prayers for Bobby« is at once a moving personal story, a true profile in courage, and a call to arms to parents everywhere.
