Description
This novel explores the romance between Matthew and Mark, two young men who are both suffering from AIDS, and the tensions that this illness creates between Mark and his family. It is an uncompromising study of family life and the place of gay men within the family institution. Other novels by Robert Ferro include "The Others", "The Blue Star" and "The Family of Max Desir". He was the recipient of the Ingram-Merril Award 1984/5 in the United States. **From Goodreads:** Written shortly before Ferro's death, this beautiful, deeply moving novel reaches to the very core of the terror of the AIDS epidemic.
