Art on Front Cover - Someone to be Loved by Steve Walker Artist
The Toronto You Are Leaving is the tender, bitingly honest story of a young gay man's coming out and coming of age in the Toronto of the 70's and 80's. David is the university student, the bookworm who is just beginning the joyful, difficult transition of bringing his private self forward. Colourful, very real characters bring to life important issues such as homophobia, the effects the coming-out can have on a family, and the impact of the historical beginning of the HIV/AIDS plague upon the Toronto communities. Warmth, eagerness, and vividly engaging characters are all here in the fascinating story of The Toronto You Are Leaving. It cannot fail to touch its readers.
Gordon had to leave his beloved Toronto before he could publish his novel. At last, he can truly sigh, "Je ne regrette pas."
