Summary

From gilded youth to 30-something. Young gay couple Tom and Christopher are steering through the minefield of changes in social and sexual mores of the 1960s and ’70s. Experimentation is the keynote of the age and Tom and Christopher dive in with a will as they move in and out of relationships and jobs in Britain and France, Channel-hopping, and bed-hopping through the years. The precocious Angelo, still only 13 at the start of the book, seems destined to create havoc with their lives at every turn, while - with echoes of Dorian Grey - they are perpetually haunted by the disappeared portrait of their young selves as David and Jonathan. This is the second novel in the Dog In The Chapel series. The third is Dog Roses.

Enjoyable.

A pleasant, enjoyable book which looks at the life of two gay young men. There are many twists and turns within the novel, including a change of partners. This is the second book in a trilogy that is the equal of the first.
The narrator and author of the book is excellent. I did find the piano pieces between the chapters rather strange though.
