520 Haunted and haunting, Jones's memoir tells the story of a
young, black, gay man from the South as he fights to carve
out a place for himself, within his family, within his
country, within his own hopes, desires, and fears. Through
a series of vignettes that chart a course across the
American landscape, Jones draws readers into his boyhood
and adolescence--into tumultuous relationships with his
mother and grandmother, into passing flings with lovers,
friends and strangers. Each piece builds into a larger
examination of race and queerness, power and vulnerability,
love and grief: a portrait of what we all do for one
another--and to one another--as we fight to become
ourselves.
