Inhalt
Originally published in 1982 as the first of Edmund White's trilogy of autobiographical novels, »A Boy's Own Story« became an instant classic for its pioneering portrayal of homosexuality and gay life in American fiction. The book's unnamed narrator, growing up during the 1950s, is beset by aloof parents, a cruel sister, and relentless mocking from his peers, compelling him to find solace in works of art, literature, and his own fantastic imagination - and to uncover new relationships in the struggle to embrace his own sexuality and to accept who he is. The yearning to be loved by the men in his life evokes a crushing sense of shame. Lyrical and poignant, this is an American literary treasure.
