OLDER FICTION

(1) YA David and Theo are schoolmates whose mutual attraction is in turn denied, acknowledged, and deferred in this romantic gay love story. There's some macho swagger in the dialogue that wrestles authentically with more vulnerable exchanges, and the physical and emotional tension is electric. Boys brave enough to do so will see themselves here in all their awkward longing.
