Synopsis
A historical romance - with a difference. London today: a world of sex and drugs and designer clothes, where Robert searches for fulfilment in gay clubs and chat rooms. London 50 years ago: fresh out of National Service, Michael enters a secret queer underworld, negotiating the dangers of the law and the closet, longing for liberation and love. Past and present collide when Robert moves into a new flat, and discovers that history is alive and kicking on his doorstep. Man's World is the story of two gay generations, and a world in which history goes unwritten., Contrasting today's blogs with diaries of the past, this novel follows two parallel narratives that are 50 years apart and vastly different, at least at first appearance. In modern-day London, Robert searches for fulfillment in a world of sex, drugs, designer clothes, and hip gay clubs, during which he records his experience on his blog. Half a century earlier, Michael kept a secret diary in which he chronicled the dangers of negotiating the closet and the laws that could land himself and his friends and lovers in prison. Past and present collide when Robert moves into a new block of flats and discovers that history is alive and kicking on his doorstep. Funny, sexy, and moving, this tale demonstrates how much the world has changed, and remarkably, how much it can remain the same.

- k***e (377)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseToday I rec'd my 1st order from this excellent seller & must say it was a very positive buying experience. The item arrived very quickly in mint new condition & very well-packaged. I hadn't seen this movie before, & obviously haven't had time to view it yet as it just arrived, so I can't review its content. However, I've become a huge fan of Margot Robbie in her role as Harley Quinn, so I'm anticipating another of her performances.
