- Summary:
- This book contains interviews with thirty men who cared for partners with AIDS, and who all -- from both a humanist and religious perspective -- recognize that in the act of caring, and, more importantly, in the special dynamic that being gay men in a partnership has, there is a deep spiritual component. While several of the interviewees rejected organized religion in their coming out and living as gay men, all suggest that their lives have been deepened through two components of all faiths: the act of service and unconditional love.
