Publisher's summary

London today: a world of sex and drugs and designer clothes, where Robert searches for fulfillment in gay clubs. London 50 years ago: Michael enters a secret queer underworld, negotiating the dangers of the law and the closet. Past and present collide when Robert moves into a new block of flats, and discovers that history is alive in his doorstep.

Two Touching Stories, Beautifully Read

This story is challenging at times, the road not being easy for any of our heroes, but well worth the struggle.

Mr. Pilkington manages to bring each character fully to life, in all their flaws and glories. I was sad when it came to an end, and am off to search for more by Mr. Smith.

So Clever! Wonderful Performance by N. Pilkington

Why on Earth did I wait so long to listen to this audiobook??? I've owned it for ages.

The narrator absolutely makes this story - takes it to eleven. All of Rupert Smith's droll and witty dialogue is elevated by Nigel Pilkington's brilliant performance. Amazing!
