Life Drawing
Michael Grumley, George Stambolian
From the plains of the Midwest to the close humidity of New Orleans to the crazy heat of Los Angeles, Michael Grumley's Life Drawing travels the course of love and its destruction, of the fragile balance of commitment and exploration.
Born in Iowa to the sounds of Bob and Bing Crosby and the Dorsey brothers, Mickey grows up to the comforting images of his living room TV and the reassuring ruts of his parents' life. During the restless summer of his senior year in high school, drifting away from the girlfriend he could never quite love, Mickey spends a night with another boy, and his world will never be the same. On a barge floating down the Mississippi, he falls in love with James, a black card player from New Orleans, and in time the two of them settle, bristling with sexual intensity, in the
French Quarter - until a brief affair destroys James's trust and sends Mickey to the drugs and images of Los Angeles.
Lush with visual detail, told with an inflinching and lyrical honesty, Lie Drawing captures the bright agonies of learning to be the person one is born to be.Includes a foreword by Edmund White and an Afterword by George Stambolian.
