This book is not written by Patrick Moore the British amateur astronomer but by:

Patrick Moore, born 1962, who has worked as a journalist for the Los Angeles Times, Newsday, the Chicago Tribune, the New York Times, the Village Voice and the Advocate. In recognition of his work for the Los Angeles Times and Newsday, he was nominated for a 2005 GLAAD Media Award as outstanding newspaper columnist. As an activist, Patrick was an early member of Act-Up/New York. He was also the founding director of the Estate Project for Artists with AIDS, which pioneered the idea of preserving artworks as cultural artifacts of the AIDS crisis. He has written a numbrer of other books but this is his only novel.

Moore has talent, and this novel speaks a lot of truth, but it is devoid of any possibility of joy in the sordid sex it chronicles. Aside from a poorly executed ending with a young man corralled at an ACT UP demonstration, it is wholly unclear how any erotic desire is even engendered much less satisfied. Maybe it's a period piece, but more likely its a rationale for why we can hate ourselves just as much as others do. Still, read it. Necessary antidote to bullshitty WILL AND GRACE.

Another somewhat depressing story about someone's life spiraling downward as if they were flushing it down a toilet recklessly yet slowly. Interesting uptick in mood given at the end bringing us a possible hope that the protagonist actually might live longer than 5 minutes after the book is finished by the reader.
