New exciting Australian gay fiction -- immensely readable, cleverly crafted and emotionally frank. "Immensely readable, cleverly crafted and emotionally frank. Unreservedly recommended". -- Graeme Aitken, OutRage In these three acts of love, John Lonie writes of that sacred and universal command as seen through the prism of gay men. In Friend of Dorothy, a boy leaves home. It's southern Queensland in the early 70s and Adrian lives in a paradise of rainforests and empty beaches; he's young and alive with a raw instinct for sex but not for who he really is. Into this innocence comes cosmopolitan Miss Ruthven, his new English teacher, who creates a powerful, challenging version of the world outside. Leo Day, TV star, finally meets Mr. Right while on holiday in Los Angeles, fulfilling his Aunt Effie's prophesy, "You will meet a man, and he will change your life". Que Sera Sera is a story of the path from lust to true love. "But there is danger for you", Aunt Effie had added -- but Leo never remembered that.
