Broken Fever: Reflections of Gay Boyhood by James Morrison (2001)
Requirements: .ePUB, .MOBI/.AZW reader, 1.1 Mb
Overview: What are the roots of personal identity? In this collection of vividly imagined, beautifully crafted essays, James Morrison searches for answers within the experiences and emotional reality of his own childhood in an attempt to pinpoint the beginnings of his self-identity. “Although from the vantage point of my present self I do not remember a time in my life when I was not gay, I know that the arrival at any avowed identity is always a complex process of affirmation and negation, refusal and identification.” It is this process, and in particular the ways gay identity circulates before it is ever spoken, that Morrison seeks to distill from specific experiences. From the beginnings of questioning his religion and religious beliefs to exploring his first boyhood attraction, Morrison's experiences are chronicled honestly and compellingly. Broken Fever crosses the traditional boundaries of essay, memoir, and fiction, and the result is a revealing and intriguing look at one happy childhood. It is an exploration with which anyone—gay or straight, young or old—can identify.
