Destination Unknown - Bill Konigsberg

From Stonewall Award winner Bill Konigsberg, a remarkable,funny, sexy, heartbreaking story of two teen boys finding each otherin New York City at the height of the AIDS epidemic.The first thing I noticed about C.J. Gorman was his plexiglassbra.It's 1987 in New York City, and Micah is at a dance club, tryingto pretend he's more out and outgoing than he really is. C.J.isn't just out - he's complete out there, and Micah can't helpbut be both attracted to and afraid of someone who travels soloudly and proudly through the night.A connection occurs. Is it friendship? Romance? Is C.J. the onewith all the answers ... or does Micah bring more to the relationshipthat it first seems? As their lives become more and more entangledin the AIDS epidemic that's laying waste to theircommunity, and the AIDS activism that will ultimately bring a strongvoice to their demands, whatever Micah and C.J. have betweenthem will be tested, strained, pushed, and pulled - but it will alsobe a lifeline in a time of death, a bond that will determinethe course of their futures.In Destination Unknown, Bill Konigsberg returns to atime he knew well as a teenager to tell a story of identity, connection,community, and survival.
