商品簡介
John Idris Jones has had a heart attack. He is only forty-seven, thin, fit and attractive. Life isn't meant to be this short, he has to recover. He needs to remember his past to embrace the future. But what past? The shy student hospitalised in a Victorian asylum in rural Wales because he was gay or the confident San Francisco preacher he wanted to become. How much is real? How much is memory? How do we remember our own past?
From a Victorian asylum in rural Wales in the early 1970s to the radical politics of HIV in Liverpool during the late eighties, John's is a journey in search of meaning and identity through the territory where sexuality, religion and culture collide. San Francisco's gay community during the early eighties offers a vibrant backdrop to John's emergence from the shadows, but AIDS begins to cast a more sinister darkness.
