The limits of pleasure

"Even during scorching sexual encounters with strangers in public parks and gay baths, Dave Miller is haunted by images - some perverse, some downright homey - of his dead family. In two intertwining chronologies, this remarkable novel follows Dave, a 40-year-old gay Jewish man who was raised by his Orthodox, Holocaust-survivor grandmother. From the cruising spots of Boston to the gay tourist scene in Amsterdam, Dave trysts dangerously with every available man.". "The Limits of Pleasure is one man's journey into the darkest recesses of his own tortured psyche - will he find redemption at the journey's end?"--BOOK JACKET.
