Jay Quinn

4.9/5 (20535 ratings)

Description:“Quinn is a masterful writer of dialogue, lacing his characters’ speech with dry humor and honest, if often unflinching words.”--The Bloomsbury ReviewJay Quinn’s Lambda-nominated novels transcend the traditional gay novel, exploring universal issues of marriage, aging parents, addiction, and attraction, all while presenting unique characters and page-turning drama.In METES AND BOUNDS, surf, sand, and sex meet in the macho world of construction workers. For narrator Matt, “the greatest comfort of surfing comes in the sureness and instinct.” Matt is not just coming of age, he’s coming out, and in the sun-bleached world of the North Carolina beaches his burgeoning sexuality can toss as many curves as a wave. Through his longings and self-discovery, Matt knows he cannot let others triumph over being the man he knows to be. As he says, “Being a surfer meant you got out, faced your own fears, and did it.” So too does Matt, in this stirring, memorable novel."Jay Quinn is a worthy successor to such phenomenal Southern writers as Eudora Welty, William Faulkner, Jim Grimsley, and Dorothy Allison. The beauty of his prose and the strength of his characters are apparent from the first sentence. This book is a sheer joy to read."--Lambda Book ReportDon’t miss any of Jay Quinn’s novels from E-Reads: Metes and Bounds, Back Where He Started, The Good Neighbor, The Beloved Son, and The Boomerang KidWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
