Its not about carnal desire, but emotions, denial, surrender, parents, friends, classmates and relatives.In his debut novel Red Silk utilizes a unique style to bring his characters to life, to take us along in a story of daily and unexpected events. Sometimes humorous, sometimes romantic, sometimes confronting, but always true to life.A working class boy changes school. Hes tutored by an upper class classmate. Its love at first sight, but its far from easy to admit it, as they differ in so many ways, and to give in to homosexual feelings just like that, is plainly out of bounds. Yet, as time goes by, events occur that bring the boys together. And although their happiness seems to have no limits, other people are far from enchanted. Will their relationship stand the storms of prejudice and criticism?
