In 1985, Yale Tishman, the development director for an art gallery in Chicago, is about to pull off an amazing coup, bringing in an extraordinary collection of 1920s paintings as a gift to the gallery. Yet as his career begins to flourish, the carnage of the AIDS epidemic grows around him. One by one, his friends are dying and after his friend Nico's funeral, the virus circles closer and closer to Yale himself. Soon the only person he has left is Fiona, Nico's little sister.

Great book about the AIDS crisis in the 80s
Revisado: 03-01-21
I picked up the book from a person I know who endured the AIDS crisis in the 80s. So from what I heard from him, this book did a great job recreating that. I really appreciated that it raises awareness for victims of AIDS. This book was very nicely written. The beginning and middle of the book I liked a lot but the ending kind of failed to deliver for me.

When you meet the love of your life, the one person you want to spend the rest of your days with, what do you do when they're ripped away? Vashti and Andy Whitfield fitted together like the missing pieces of a perfect jigsaw. From the moment they met, they were inseparable. Vashti inspired Andy to fight fearlessly to achieve whatever he dreamed, and he gave her a love so deep that they both knew their life together would be nothing less than extraordinary.

Truly Inspiring...
Revisado: 02-24-17
I really loved and appreciated this book. It captured my attention entirely and had such a great message. I love books like this that make me reevaluate my own life and encourage improvement. Bravo to Vashti for her incredible introspection and having the courage to share her story with integrity. I am truly inspired! RIP Andy Whitfield.
