Description

Set in the 1980s against the backdrop of a swiftly gentrifying Manhattan, The Lost Language of Cranes tells the story of 25-year-old Philip, who realizes he must come out to his parents after falling in love for the first time with a man. Philip's parents are facing their own crisis: pressure from developers and the loss of their longtime home. But the real threat to this family is Philip's father's own struggle with his latent homosexuality, realized only in his Sunday afternoon visits to gay porn theaters.

Philip's admission to his parents and his father's hidden life provoke changes that forever alter the landscape of their worlds.

As an added bonus, when you purchase our Audible Modern Vanguard production of David Leavitt's book, you'll also get an exclusive Jim Atlas interview that begins when the audiobook ends.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Fascinating. Lingers in the mind...Mr. Leavitt''s sense of pacing, his graceful sentences and his storytelling ability dovetail nicely." (New York Times Book Review)
"A brilliant, wise first novel. The delight of the book is Leavitt''s style. It flashes with pathos, anger, and camp wit; it rises to a subtle urban lyricism." (Vogue)
"An amazingly perceptive novel." (San Francisco Chronicle)
