Мъртвите момчета не могат да танцуват - Мишел Доре / Симон Л.Лажьонес

В дълбините на чувствата, до дълбочината на ковчега заровен в пръстта. Неизмерима бездна на тъга, емоционално потъване, поглъщане, дълбоко задушаващо и убиващо.
Танц в отвъдното – щастливият край на избавлението от злото, пир за духовното изчистване. Но колко от вас могат да танцуват?

Deserves at least 4 stars. Not perfect but certainly powerful. It's also very concise and poignant . Perhaps less so, for those looking for something easy but, what did you expect from a book titled "dead boys can't dance" a book about sexual orientation, masculinity, and suicide (all of which is written on the cover...). Although I am looking for more diverse research. That being said, I believe this book to be an important read.Dead Boys Can't Dance: Sexual Orientation, Masculinity, and Suicide
