Join us for a discussion of Pain Before the Rainbow by Jack Cooper.
This gripping book chronicles the life of a man who was acutely aware of being gay as a boy in an unaccepting world—a time before the rainbow. Cooper presents an eloquent narrative through a series of stories that engage the reader’s mind and heart in this skillfully composed exploration of identity and compelling perspective through the lens of a man who lives and loves outside the lines of the oppressive heterosexual boxes that society and religion drew and that condition boys to think and act according to a preset definition of masculinity.
