MEN WITH THEIR HANDS ... a deaf gay novel.

	MEN WITH THEIR HANDS First Place Winner of the Project: QueerLit 2006 Contest Told through a variety of voices from 1975 to 2002, a young deaf man discovers his sexuality alone in a small town and eventually join others of his kind--a new family who understands him--in New York City. Twenty years in the making, the novel was also a first-place grant recipient from the Arch and Bruce Brown Foundation for Full-Length Fiction 2003. Since 1991, fourteen of its chapters have appeared in various journals and anthologies such as BLOOM and Men on Men 4: Best New Gay Fiction. One of its chapters, "Interpretations," was chosen as one of the Best Gay Stories 2008 (Lethe Press). Two of its chapters were also adapted and performed as stage monologues. Note: The cover is not yet finalized, but it should give you an idea of what the book will look like when it comes out in February 2009. More details to come as soon as they are confirmed. The novel will be available from Suspect Thoughts Press.
