Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Growing up, Dr. Olson wanted to fit in, but fitting in is not belonging.He aspired to be a good boy. Now he’s sick of it. Olson did what was expected of him, but to fit in, he partitioned off parts of himself that he believed were unacceptable. He felt isolated and alone. As a young man, Olson was successful by every external measure. At age forty, he upended his life when he fell in love with another man. In No More Neckties: A Memoir in Essays, Olson flings open the doors and reveals he wasn’t always a good boy. His stories of love and heartbreak; body image and gay men’s sexuality; betrayal and forgiveness; and being old and gay aren’t always noble, but they show a humanness to which everyone can relate. Olson is a well-regarded essayist and a gifted storyteller. His earlier book, Finally Out: Letting Go of Living Straight, won the Gold Award for Nonfiction from the IBPA.In No More Neckties, Olson sends a message of hope and compassion to the reader, telling them they are not alone in the hard stuff in their lives.
