Summary: Through the Ruins... The title says it all!!
Comment: Wow!!! What can I say about this book. I always wondered what it would have been like if I had not come to terms with being Gay when I did and went ahead and married my girlfriend of the time. I now know my answer...
I read this book in less than a day it was so good. The Author, Stephen Hart did an incrediable job keeping me gripped in the details and feelings of what the lead character, 'Michael' was going through. After the confrontation with his wife, and her subsequent death, all the issues that Michael went through, the PFLAG meeting, dating Peter, subsequent questioning himself, and the confrontations with his family, friends and neighbors were HIGHLY believable!!!
You spend most of the book rooting for Michael, and hoping he gets himself sorted out and moves on with a life with Peter (the Cop he meets as a result of the PFLAG meeting). You will have to read the book to see the outcome of all of this...
Run and get this book! You will be VERY HAPPY YOU DID!!!

Summary: A wonderful read!
Comment: I am a frequent customer of Amazon.com and I've never felt the urge to review one of the many books that I have ordered, until now. Through the Ruins is simply a wonderful read. I am waiting for Mr. Hart to give us a sequel so I can find out how Michael and Peter have faired Michael's "coming out". The book is a tender, almost frightening story, of Michael Lyon's new found freedom of living life as a gay man. A "must read" for all gay married men living among us and for those men who may be considering marriage as a way to hide true feelings. And still a good story for all the remaining "gay romantic at heart" types out there, me included. Do yourself a favor and buy the book and prepare to loose a little sleep until it's finished.

Summary: A wonderful portaint of a man's life!
Comment: I just finished reading Through The Ruins and loved it! I'd read earlier reviews praising it and thought I'd give it a try. Finally a novel about a gay man that doesn't hit EVERY stereotype known to man! A previous review had mentioned some typos. There were a few but no where near the amount mentioned or no more than I've seen in other books I've read over the years. This book is a rare gem that tells one aspect of the gay experience- an aspect that rarely gets much attention. There are no dance clubs in this book, no drugs. There are no graphic sex scenes and just because there's a gay man in a novel Stephen Hart does a refreshing change and keeps AIDS out of it. Gay does not equal AIDS and it was nice to read a novel that understnads that! A great read. You won't be disappointed!
