The Giddy Death of the Gays & the Strange Demise of Straights

In Redfern Jon Barrett's satirical novel, a vibrant tapestry of 20-something queer misfits navigates life in Swansea, Wales, against a backdrop of poverty and eccentricity. Central to the tale are Caroline and her Dom, whose lives spiral into chaos when Dom's unorthodox bond with his straight roommate sparks a whirlwind of cross-dressing and liberated love. As clashes unfold between religious fundamentalists and the city's colorful queer community, the narrative explores themes of identity, love, and acceptance in a dynamic portrayal of contemporary queer life.
