Review: This book had me gripped from the 1st page, I read it in a day, just couldn't bring myself to put it down once I started reading. An amazing story of a young man drawn around the world in search of his love. Vidal makes the book spark the imagination, absolutely brilliant read.

Review: This book is a product of its time. It made little LGBT literary ground and has a very weak charter base.
