About the Book

A novel about true friendship overshadowed by the choices, both good and bad, made by several young gay men during an eight year period encompassing the late 1970's and early 1980's. You'll be seduced by Damian's sophisticated charm, won over by Jeremy's good looks and debonair "Southern fried" style, fascinated by Tim's weird and kinky proclivities, struck by Tony's undying devotion, confounded by the stark contrast of Kofi's willingness to serve and comfort to Carlos's passion for domination and control, confused by the strange duplicity of the ostensibly straight guy Marcus, cringe at the ins and outs of being a roommate with Keith and Ernie, not to mention being amused by the narrator's self-styled "den of iniquity," admiring his often wise and frequently zany parents, laughing at his campy sidekick Randall, marveling at the effervescent Uncle Frank as well as a host of others from various stations in life.The author reflects the tastes, attitudes and styles of the times, in addition to highlighting several significant events which made headlines for the gay community, both in positive and negative ways (the Anita Bryant controversy, religious and moral intolerence, AIDS, urban challenges, fashions and fads -- just to name a few).The reader will come away with understanding and sympathy reflected in the experiences of true-life characters in a world which existed not that long ago and is worth recalling with pride, affirmation and dignity. We truly have come a long way in THE CHOICES WE MADE!
About the Author: RODION REBENYAR is the pseudonym of a Sacramento-based author and poet whose books are primarily gay themed, with an emphasis upon the lives of gay men growing up the United States during the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's of the last century. In addition to his first self-published book BOYS ON PURPOSE: A Collection of Poetry, Prose and Stories with Decidedly Gay Overtones and the current novel THE CHOICES WE MADE, he is working on two new projects: a fully illustrated travel book entitled FELLOW TRAVELER and a new novel WILLIAM GERHARDT. Future projects include two additional novels: LUCHO POR LUCHO and SQUISH
