Overview
"'Say It Won’t Be Lonely' offers insight into the life of a gay man whose transformation from nearly celibate to comically oversexed is both clumsy and unexpected. Told in the voice of a pop-culture-obsessed millennial with a staggeringly weak sense of self-awareness, the book uses humor to contrast the intimacy in platonic relationships with the absence of intimacy in casual sex. In addition, the book confronts themes of questioning the valorization of masculinity, the importance of friendship versus romantic love, and changing perspectives of self-worth in the LGBTQ community." --Abstract.
