Summary: Enough already
Comment: My dad of all people recommended this book to me, telling me it was absolutely fascinating. Unfortunately, reading page after page of stories about someone who is smarter, more talented, and better looking than anyone else around doesn't fascinate me... it does help me go to sleep a little faster at night though.

Rating: 5
Summary: Absolutely fascinating
Comment: This is a wonderfully insightful book. Filled with both uplifting joys and terrible tragedies, Helms' story brings together the most potent emotions from homosexuality, alcoholism, substance abuse and even aging. The broad range of the piece is staggering and, in such a short book, quite an accomplishment. There's something in this book for everyone with a troubled soul, and troubles enough for those without. Its end, though, brings some closure. No empty promises of a bright tomorrow, but hope for better today.

Rating: 5
Summary: A Touching Biography of a Gay Man's Life
Comment: This book is a touchiing biography of almost every gay mans life. It deals with everything from parents to posessive lovers. The feeling of isolation and the evental realisation that there may never be that one true love for the rest of your days. Life for gay men is usually good, but it is at the same time hell on earth. Helms captures this very eloquently in his novel.
