Originally published in 1982 as the first of Edmund White's trilogy of autobiographical novels, A Boy's Own Story became an instant classic for its pioneering portrayal of homosexuality. The book's unnamed narrator, growing up during the 1950s, is beset by aloof parents, a cruel sister, and relentless mocking from his peers, compelling him to seek out works of art and literature as solace-and to uncover new relationships in the struggle to embrace his own sexuality. Lyrical and poignant, with powerful evocations of shame and yearning, this is an American literary treasure.Binding Type: Paperback

Good but a little small
Color: Dark Grey, Size: Large
Seems worth its price, nothing fancy. It's tight in the shoulders but a size up would become too boxy in the waist for me. Didnt shrink too much so the size it arrives as should tell you.

Nice looking shirts.
Color: White, Size: Small
Fits well. It's a nice-looking shirt that can be worn on its own or layered over another shirt. It is somewhat thin, so it's more for milder weather.
