Ebook About "Like Rebecca Makkai's The Great Believers, author-activist Malloy's newest novel is a heartrending portrayal of the realities of healing.” —Oprah Daily, Best LGBTQ Books of 2021Acclaimed author Brian Malloy brings insight, humor, and the authenticity of his own experiences as a member of the AIDS generation to this universal story of love and loss set in New York City and Minneapolis at the peak of the AIDS crisis. Published on the 40th anniversary of the disease’s first reported cases, After Francesco is both a tribute to a generation lost to the pandemic as well as a powerful and universal exploration of heartbreak, recovery and how love can defy grief. The year is 1988 and 28-year-old Kevin Doyle is bone-tired of attending funerals. It’s been two years since his partner Francesco died from AIDS, an epidemic ravaging New York City and going largely ignored by the government, leaving those effected to suffer in silence, feeling unjustifiable shame and guilt on top of their loss. Some people might insist that Francesco and the other friends he’s lost to the disease are in a better place, but Kevin definitely isn’t. Half-alive, he spends his days at a mind-numbing job and nights with the ghost of Francesco, drunk and drowning in memories of a man who was too young to die. When Kevin hits an all-time low, he realizes it’s time to move back home to Minnesota and figure out how to start living again—without Francesco. With the help of a surviving partners support group and friends both old and new, Kevin slowly starts to do just that. But an unthinkable family betrayal, and the news that his best friend is fighting for his life in New York, will force a reckoning and a defining choice. "This novel is fresh, well-observed, often funny, sometimes angry, and always real. I can't think of another novel about the AIDS years that captures that difficult, messy, intense age more accurately or movingly." —Christopher Bram, author of Eminent Outlaws: The Gay Writers Who Changed America "In this highly recommended novel, the pain and rage felt by Kevin and those in the trenches with him is palpable and uncomfortable and real. So too is the love and warmth of spirit they manage to nurture in order to survive." —Library Journal(Starred Review)Book After Francesco: A Haunting Must-Read Perfect for Book Clubs Review :
Brian Malloy’s novel, “After Francesco”, is the story of a man mourning the death of his partner of AIDS. Since the book takes place in 1988, before the advent of the miracle drugs that tamed the disease to a manageable, yet still difficult disease, diagnoses is a death sentence. Kevin - a sort of “every man” - has moved from Minneapolis to New York City a few years earlier. He comes from a sort of hard background. He meets Francesco, an artist on the verge of discovery in the art world. They fall in love - and partnership (remember, this is before same sex marriage) - but Francesco gets AIDS, and dies. Kevin nurses his partner and is with him at his death.But this is the late 1980’s and gay men getting sick and dying. Kevin has not only lost Francesco, but many friends, as well. He’s at a loss after Francesco’s death, unable to go on, not knowing what life holds. He’s drinking at a level that might indicate alcoholism. He decides to go back to Minneapolis, where he was brought up. There are friends and relatives who can help him.Malloy’s novel is full of nuanced portrayals of Kevin, his friends and family, along with others who play a negative role in the story. Villains like mayor Ed Koch, the Reagan’s, and George HW Bush, as well as the New York Times, who ignored the beginnings of the AIDS epidemic. Even Donald Trump is mentioned.But this book is not a political diatribe. It’s truly the story of people affected by disease and society’s handling of it. Kevin is looking for a way to move on with his life and perhaps even find love again. Others who have lost friends and family are making the same search. This is a powerful book and a universal story. Brian Malloy creates words that flow from the page to the heart. The story he captures is real. The people are real. The time period is one many of us lived through, but had moved through and revisited through this book. For readers to whom this is history, Mr. Malloy will help you time travel back to a time you may only know from course work.But either way, the men and women and the love are all here. So is AIDS in the early days, before they knew how it was transmitted. When AZT was the only medication available. When ACT-UP was in its infancy. When you feel as if you're at the demonstrations. When lovers are dying. When the politics are personal.I plan to binge every book by Mr. Malloy and look forward to discovering that his writing is as wonderful and important as it is in this book.
