Summary:
This story traces a disintegrating nuclear family across two tumultuous decades of American life - from the early '60s to the '80s - and is told in a quartet of voices: astronaut Allen Cloud, his wife, their gay son, Jonathan, and his friend/lover. It ranges in time and emotion from the optimism of the first moon shot to the dark landscape of the age of AIDS.
