Inhalt
John Irving's 13th novel tells the outrageous story of bisexual novelist Billy Abbott, who comes of age in the uptight 1950s and explores his sexuality through the decades into the plague-ridden 1980s and finally to a more positive present day. Sexual confusion sets in early for Billy, simultaneously attracted to both the female librarian and golden boy wrestler Jacques Kittredge, who treats Billy with the same disdain he shows Billy's best friend, Elaine. Faced with an unsympathetic mother and an absent father who might have been gay, Billy travels to Europe, where he has affairs with a transgendered female and an older male poet, an early AIDS activist. In the end, sexual secrets abound in this novel. It's the tragicomic story of a life as a sexual suspect, the portrait of the solitariness of a bisexual man who is dedicated to making himself »worthwhile«.
