- Summary:
- This tender and lyrical memoir remains one of the most compelling documents of the AIDS era--a searing, shattering, ultimately hope-inspiring account of a great love story.
- For almost two years, day and night, Monette helped Roger Horwitz, his friend of twelve years, fight the AIDS calamity with courage and dignity. His is more than a testimony to the ravages of this plague, it is a love story -- one that explores the fullness of human connection and the pain of separation.
