![]() The words are perfection the characters even more so. Walker paints a quiet picture of two men nurturing their relationship and overcoming obstacles. I love how Charlie doted on Travis, how desperately he wanted to keep Travis, even as he pushed him away. Travis is patient, loving, a little snarky, and sweet. ![]() The red dirt is ever present, another character in this gorgeous story. The way he held me, the way he looked at me, it was the closest to heaven I'd ever get without dyin'. And on the cold, cold ground by the flickering warmth of the fire, we made love. We rocked back and forth, always kissing. This is an extraordinary book about ordinary things: working together, loving together talking out the big, and little, things reconciling differences shopping for supplies building a garden bed dealing with immigration bureaucracy. ![]() You can have the shopping and hairdresser, but on the account of loving dick and arse, I'd say very gay.Ĭharlie is so convinced Travis will leave him that when the possibility actually arises, he can barely make sense of it. He feels bound but isn't sure what binds him. As real life encroaches, Charlie has to grow into the man he's supposed to be. Charlie and Travis are back so are Ma, George, Billy, Greg, and Bacon, as well as some new faces (not all of them human!). ![]()
