David Leavitt's extraordinary first novel, now reissued in paperback, is a seminal work about family, sexual identity, home, and loss. Set in the 1980s against the backdrop of a swiftly gentrifying Manhattan, The Lost Language of Cranes tells the story of twenty-five-year-old Philip, who realizes he must come out to his parents after falling in love for the first time with a man. Philip's parents are facing their own crisis: pressure from developers and the loss of their longtime home. But the real threat to this family is Philip's father's own struggle with his latent homosexuality, realized only in his Sunday afternoon visits to gay porn theaters. Philip's admission to his parents and his father's hidden life provoke changes that forever alter the landscape of their worlds.

David Leavitt的書,似乎注定我是讀不下去,超奇怪的說。明明劇情都是戳中萌點的,卻每每看瞭兩三段就抓狂,隻能說沒有緣分?

评分I loved the story but it was a bit disappointing that I didn't get as emotionally invested as I thought I would.
