Synopsis
FINALIST FOR THE LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD IN GAY FICTIONNAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE WASHINGTON POST AND *THE GUARDIAN**Nova Scotia House* takes us to the heart of a relationship, a community and an era, both a love story and a lament.
In this profound meditation on grief, Johnny looks back at his relationship with his life partner, Jerry, after his AIDS-related death. When they met, nearly thirty years ago, Johnny was 19, Jerry was 45. They made a life on their own terms in Jerry's flat: 1, Nova Scotia House. Johnny is still there today--but Jerry is gone, and so is the world they knew.
Intimate, visionary, and profoundly original--as well as raw, hot, and hilarious--Nova Scotia House marks the debut of a vibrant new voice in contemporary fiction.
