Let's Shut Out the World

The narrator of these autobiographical stories and personal essays has man trouble - trouble with his homophobic father, his horny best friend, his rigid high school principal and a slew of 'fauxmosexuals' and elusive boyfriends. Sometimes funny, sometimes harrowing, Let's Shut Out The World traces the man-hungry and misanthropic journey of a young booklover following his desires from Texan tumbleweeds to the heaving streets of San Francisco in pursuit of sex, drugs, a lover and more.
