Desire draws them together. What follows is never simple.A brand new collection of five gay-themed stories by John Stewart Wynne (Lambda Literary Award-nominated author of the novel The Red Shoes) about how desire re-shapes us. Ranging in locations from East Hampton to the Scottish Highlands to Provincetown and Tahiti, the stories vary in tone-tragic, comic, mystical-but share a psychological and emotional core and a commonality: that getting close changes everything.A Killing in East HamptonA story of class, resentment, and suspicion in a young, wealthy, gay married couple’s new neighborhood-where a friendship across generations ends in betrayal.NarcissistA professor falls under the spell of a beautiful teen who, like the mythical Narcissus, only offers back his own reflection.We’re Going PlacesA sharply drawn satire in which a retired soap star whisks away his young fiancé to Tahiti, but ambition, aging, and the need for visibility follow them around the world.Louise, Don’t GoTwo older women meet in a hotel in the Scottish Highlands and engage in a delicate act of longing and spectral memory, blurring the boundary between past and future.BlondsA young runaway lands in Provincetown and finds comfort in a relationship with a reclusive housepainter-until jealousy unravels everything they’ve built.These stories explore the shifting ground between love and loss, intimacy and illusion, in quiet storms of psychological tension. Dark, tender, ironic, and emotionally precise, they reveal just how far the heart will go-and what it leaves behind.
