Provocative. Bold. Fabulous.

Blame it on a really unusual writing style, almost diary like, with even just points written here and there without much explained paragraphs.
That I struggled to get suited to, Perhaps any other day After reading his more works A profound and moving account of the experience of being queer and growing up in a city like no other in the world.
The spirit of queerness is encapsulated

in the author's lyrical prose and unique voice few other authors can hope to match Merchant's eye for detail in a colourful mileu shrouded in the fog of confusion, doubt and anxiety.
The pressures of constantly needing to resist those who would thwart or obstruct a man who would be queen are more pertinent to the contemporary era than ever before.
Horrible ! As everyone knows by now, I m homosexual, To write this sentence and to speak it publicly, which is a great liberation, is why I write,

In the words of its writer: The art of living is the art of creating lifefictions, The first and second sections of the autobiography take us through the garden of delight or the no man s land of childhood, and the circle of hell or the coming of age years it is in the penultimate section How I write/ Why I write that the poet achieves the desired garden of bliss.
