This beautiful little chapbook (hand bound, fine paper and superb cover) is a partially illustrated prose tale of a young gay man trying to find his way through a maze of relationships. Written as diary entries and letters, a real intimacy weaves the reader through the uncertainties and insecurities that plague the main character in his search for security and understanding. Somehow, the author manages to make these rather hefty subjects accessible and engaging. By the end of this work many readers will probably feel reassured that their own anxiety (fucked-up-ed-ness) is a fairly universal human trend.
