En la América de los años cincuenta, un joven se enfrenta a los vaivenes afectivos de la infancia y a los ritos de paso de la adolescencia. Su historia está marcada por el descubrimiento de su homosexualidad, un proceso de autodescubrimiento lleno de dudas, miedos y la búsqueda constante de su propia identidad en un entorno a menudo incomprensivo. Considerada un clásico de la literatura contemporánea, esta obra narra con lirismo, ironía y crudeza el tránsito hacia la madurez. A través de una prosa brillante, Edmund White explora la complejidad de las relaciones familiares, el aprendizaje social y el difícil camino hacia la aceptación personal, convirtiendo esta novela en un referente fundamental de la narrativa LGTB.

Edmund Valentine White III was an American novelist, memoirist, playwright, biographer and essayist. A pioneering figure in LGBTQ and especially gay literature after the Stonewall riots, he wrote with rare candor about gay identity, relationships, and sex. His work emerged as part of an increasingly solidified and visible LGBTQ community, helping to reshape public narratives at a time when coming out was still a dangerous, even radical act. His writing, noted for intimate depth and literary elegance, includes the semi-autobiographical trilogy A Boy's Own Story (1982), The Beautiful Room Is Empty (1988), and The Farewell Symphony (1997). He also co-authored The Joy of Gay Sex (1977), promoting sex-positive discourse.
