Where The Rainbow Ends - Softcover

"...feels like the fictionalised history of a generation of gay men." - New York Times"

With WHERE THE RAINBOW ENDS, acclaimed short story writer and journalist Jameson Currier has written more than another AIDS novel. Packed with the stuff of life, this uplifting work might be termed a gay immigrant novel, a saga about men and women who leave their hometown and families, move to the big cities, and fashion new lives in an alien land. At the centre of this epic tale is Robbie Taylor a white trash farm boy, who settles in New York in 1978 as an optimistic, romantic young man with a circle of new gay friends. This powerful and passionate story takes Robbie through a personal odyssey into enlightenment, spanning a period of almost fifteen years. Through his eyes the reader witnesses the sexy hedonism of the Manhattan gay scene in the late 1970s, the AIDS ravaged Reagan years of the early to mid 1980s, and the AIDS activism of 1990s Los Angeles. Skilfully combining historical fact with fiction, Currier masterfully weaves a powerfully story about the families that society's outsider create for themselves, a story that is at once lyrical, poignant, and sexy.
