Description
THE AERODYNAMICS OF PORK - an irresistible story of love, sexuality, music and comedy - is the first novel from the bestselling author of A PLACE CALLED WINTER and NOTES FROM AN EXHIBITION, first published in 1986 'A master storyteller' Independent on Sunday 'Gale's concoction is irresistible: modern relationships with period charm' Armistead Maupin Seth, a musical prodigy on the eve of his sixteenth birthday, is obsessed with sex and with the men he might meet, as well as with his strange family - his arch mother, his beautiful sister, and his damaged, distant father. Mo, a policewoman struggling with moral dilemmas and her sexuality in the corrupt and bigoted police force of the 1980s, wants only to find romance. In this haunting tale of self discovery and hidden identities, Mo and Seth will connect to face unexpected truths about themselves, and those they have chosen to love. What readers loved about Patrick Gale's early novel: 'As with all of Patrick Gale books I love this one. For his first novel it's a little gem' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'I read this when it first came out, and as a young gay man it was also when I first came out. It seemed touching and sweet and impossibly romantic and I desperately wanted to live in its world. Years pass and I'm a bit old and grizzled. It's a period piece now (how young, how naive we all once were) but it remains its lovely self with its sweet humanism at its heart' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
