内容简介
The first book on AIDS to be writen from the point of view of a gay man's heterosexual sister. And what writing it is! "The mark of a good writer is that when she invites you to take a trip with her, you do not hesitate," wrote Phyllis Theroux about Barbara Lazear Ascher, and the trip Ms. Ascher takes us on is to the land of grief. It is a hero's journey, she says, one that must be made alone, yet hers, as anyone's, is also universal. Go with her, and she will lead you not only into danger, but to a safe resolution, a safe return. The impetus for Ms. Ascher's trip was the death of her brother Bobby at age thirty-one. A "wild thing," brilliant and unpredictable, he found happiness in New Orleans with a permanent lover and in a society that welcomed him and loved him. He was often alien to Ms. Ascher, and one of the glories of this book is her self-appraisal about the relationship, her coming to terms with their differences while maintaining her love. Indeed, her portrait of him reveals both how difficult and lovable he was. Lyrical, impassioned, vivid, moving as few books have the ability to move, Landscape Without Gravity is a wonderful writer's most deeply felt work. It is one of the most beautiful books you will ever read. In this impassioned and beautifully written account, one woman shares her inspiring journey through mourning to the acceptance of her brother's death. This bold memoir also provides a road map for readers experiencing loss--especially helpful to brothers and sisters.作者简介
