"In the shadow of the 1954 nuclear bomb tests on the Bikini atoll, two sailors begin a tender, passionate affair that will carry them halfway around the world: to San Francisco, Manhattan, Fire Island, and Washington, DC. The lovers learn, with fumbling hands and lips, how to satisfy one another, but the erotic heat of their sexual explorations is matched by the tension of their dangerous situation. Can their forbidden love withstand the relentless hostility of the Eisenhower years? You""ll never forget this witty, honest portrait of gay life in pre-Stonewall America."Leddick, David is the author of 'Handsomest Man in the World' with ISBN 9781560234586 and ISBN 156023458X.
