About this title: Andrew Holleran's third novel in 18 years is about Mr. Lark, a bookish 47-year-old man who cares for his elderly, paralyzed mother. He is in love with a younger man who doesn't return his interest, and he spends his time looking for someone to replace him--and mourning the many men he knows who have died of AIDS.

"This book is pretty reflective on the consequences of vanity in gay male culture. I'm enjoying it quite a bit, and have always enjoyed Andrew Hollerans' books for the cattiness and their frank discussion I find missing from most mediums that depict gay men."
"A must read for people aging and revising their outlook on life. The main character in this book is much deeper than the main character in Holleran's first novel (Dancer from the Dance)."
"indulgent and great for anyone who loves holleran because he's oh-so consistent in themes (indulgent male homos pre and post the insurrection of AIDS)."
