Books: Author Christopher Bram
I mentioned Christopher Bram recently. He's partially responsible for the "circus animals" in the tag line on this blog. I just recently read his books Exiles in America and Gods & Monsters. Both are good reads. Exiles has a somewhat unsettled end, by which I mean that the plot isn't really resolved. But, that's kind of the point of the book, since it's about personal relationships and they are never really resolved, are they. Gods & Monsters is of course the book that inspired the movie, and adds some rich subtext to the story. Christopher Bram has certainly found his own niche -- novels that are gay themed or have a gay subtext for a broader "literary" audience.
