From this excerpt, Affliction seems like it has the potential to be a heartwarming and heartbreaking story about the author’s father - she starts with her shock as a young adult of her dad telling her that he is gay, but then immediately backtracks into her childhood and sets up the quiet details of their relationship and his devotion as a husband and dad. I hope this book does his life story justice, and helps open eyes to the reality of so many lgbtq+ people who have had to hide their authentic selves.
