Rezensionen

Nelson works as a script supervisor in LA, hoping to finish his own novel and hoping to find a boy friend. Well, he even meets two guys, one hot, the other one real boy friend material. To make his life worse, he gets fired, gets stuck in a tar pit and leaves for Alaska... with both guys. This is not only a weird plot, but also an ultimately funny one with a lot of insights. Bob Smith knows men and shows it. That not only makes for a fun read that brings tears to your eyes, but this is also an amazing story with real human beings, interacting, fighting, loving, laughing and struggling for the important things in life.
