Unable to admit to the truth, David pretends the liaison never happened - while Giovanni's life descends into tragedy. This book introduces love's fascinating possibilities and extremities. ''Exquisite, a feat of fire-breathing, imaginative daring'' Guardian David, a young American in 1950s Paris, is waiting for his fiancée to return from vacation in Spain. But when he meets Giovanni, a handsome Italian barman, the two men are drawn into an intense affair. After three months David''s fiancée returns and, denying who he is, he rejects Giovanni for a ''safe'' future as a married man. It is a decision that will bring tragedy. ''Gorgeous, fearless, tempered by dark knowledge and pain ... the greatest American prose stylist of his generation'' Colm Tóibín ''A layered exploration of queer desire ... It is electric'' Hilton Als
