Description:

Young adult fiction with gay or lesbian characters most often focuses on the emotional or social aspects of coming out. In a world in which gay teens have little support of visibility this focus is a good thing. But Whistle Me Home deals with gayness from another perspective. Noli, a smart, boyish teenage girl has fallen in love with T. J., the new boy at school. Cute, sensitive, and attentive, T. J. appears to be her soul mate, but much to Noli's dismay their intense relationship never becomes sexual. When T. J. finally confesses his homosexuality to her, Noli is both furious and crushed. Whistle Me Home deals carefully with people's secrets as well as with the pain that can be caused by unfulfilled sexual longing.
