Description

Today, that literary blindness is being remedied. Take an in-depth look into the lives of fifteen gay men and how they relate to their own ageing with GAY MEN AT MIDLIFE, a fascinating new book that explores and clarifies the issues that confront gay men as they age. The 15 essays presented here offer a realistic picture of both the challenges and the joys that present themselves in the lives of gay men at midlife. Without glossing over the difficulties of the experience, readers will truly come to understand that each gay man is not alone in confronting the pain and mourning that may accompany middle age.
