SUMMARY:Lavender Book Club: Henry Henry by Allen Bratton
DESCRIPTION:The Lavender Book Club will be discussing Henry Henry by Allen Bratton on Thursday\, April 30\, 6:30pm – 8:00pm at the Pittsburgh Equality Center — 5401 Centre Avenue\, Pittsburgh\, PA 15222. \nN.B. To avoid the NFL Draft traffic and related chaos\, we’re meeting a week later than usual! \nAbout the Book\n“Bratton’s electric debut novel transforms Shakespeare into a modern\, queer drama that’s as bawdy as it’s sharp.” —Hugh Ryan\, The New York Times \nLAUGH NOW. CRY LATER.  \n“Two stars keep not their motion in one sphere…” \nIt’s London\, 2014\, and Hal Lancaster\, son and heir of Henry\, Duke of Lancaster\, is in a holding pattern: his mother is dead\, his father is dying or remarrying or both\, his siblings are fighting\, his internship is pointless\, and nobody will leave him alone. \nEverything is as it should be and yet nothing is right. Over the course of a year of partying\, drinking\, and flirting to dubious consequence\, Hal is tested by brutal family legacies\, Catholic guilt\, and the terrifying possibility of being loved. All of which is complicated by a pattern of abuse that threatens to chase Hal into adulthood. The House of Lancaster will never be the same. \nCrackling with intelligence and wit\, Henry Henry is a brilliant recasting of the Henriad in which Hal Lancaster is a queer protagonist for a new era. Allen Bratton arrives as a successor to Waugh and St. Aubyn with this lush\, stylish novel of family\, legacy\, and what it means to be alive today. \nRead Reviews\nAmazon \nGet the Book\nLibrary | Amazon | Local Bookstore \nAbout the Author\nAllen Bratton was born in the United States.
