Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
At home, in school, and on the streets, a homosexual teenager growing up in the 1950s moves through comic sexual experiments, isolation, fear, and exciting expectations toward an escape from childhood and a firm sense of self, in a twentieth anniversary edition of this classic coming-of-age gay novel.
Review:
"Like so many American novels about coming to maturity, A BOY'S OWN STORY asserts that growing up is a descent into painful knowledge, indecency and repression."
Catherine R. Stimpson, New York Times Book Review, 10/10/1982
Review:"This is not exclusively a homosexual boy's story. It is any boy's story, to the marvelous degree that it evokes the inchoate longing of late childhood and adolescence."
Christopher Lehmann-Haupt, New York Times
