Evan Stanton is in over his head. Injured from a fall on campus, he's let his boyfriend talk him into a senior year total immersion trip--two weeks abroad--only his boyfriend ends up dumping him shortly before takeoff. Evan gets on the plane anyway, but he's lost his hope and added to his pain. Chris Bale decided to spend his senior year of college clearing his head after breaking up with the girl he's dated since high school. He finds himself on a flight to Istanbul next to a surly kid with piercings and guyliner who couldn't be more his opposite. They strike up a friendship anyway, and as they make their way across a foreign land, Bale realizes he's too immersed in Evan to let go. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Evan is not in a good place at the beginning of the story. He had a bad fall, injured his back, and has never really recovered - despite the fact his doctors told him his symptoms should go away within a few weeks. Evan's real problem isn't purely physical though - it is mental. Evan's boyfriend does not react well to Evan's issues with pain and "wants time apart" instead of going on the jointly planned trip with Evan. What a crappy thing to do! Evan ends up miserable, morose, and in horrible pain.
Bale is the guy ending up next to him on the plane, and he is determined to help. He sees something in Evan that is new and different, and no matter how bad Evan's is, Bale puts up with it and tries to cheer him up. A recent split from his ex-girlfriend allows him to explore a different type of relationship (he's only so far "fooled around" with a few men), but it quickly becomes more for him.
If you like unusual settings, if you enjoy reading about men who come out of their shells - slowly and dragging their feet a little, and if you're looking for a short read that might make you smile at the characters' antics as well as some very funny situations as they travel, then you will probably like this novella.
