Summary: | This tender and lyrical memoir remains one of the most compelling documents of the AIDS era--a searing, shattering, ultimately hope-inspiring account of a great love story. For almost two years, day and night, Monette helped Roger Horwitz, his friend of twelve years, fight the AIDS calamity with courage and dignity. His is more than a testimony to the ravages of this plague, it is a love story -- one that explores the fullness of human connection and the pain of separation. |
