Description:

AIDS has had such a tremendous impact on the lives of gay men that there is not one AIDS story to be told, but hundreds. Alfred Corn's novel Part of His Story details the bereavement of a writer who, after his lover has died, moves to London ostensibly to research a new book, but in actuality to come to terms with the past. Corn, a prize-winning poet, writes with a sedate beauty that allows his character's emotions and inner lives to unfold with dignity and intelligence. While Part of His Story revolves around a complicated plot--the narrator finds a new lover connected to the struggle for Irish independence--the novel is, in essence, a meditation on loss and rebirth in the midst of death and violence.
