Publisher's summary

Martin Moran performs his hit off-Broadway play, heralded as "Surprising and moving! Startling, marvelously told" by New York Newsday.

A true story of sexuality, spirituality, and the mystery of human experience, The Tricky Part is one of the most beloved one-man plays in recent memory. Between the ages of 12 and 15, the creator/performer, Martin Moran, had a sexual relationship with an older man. Now over 40 years later and an established New York actor, he has transformed his story into a riveting, often funny, and surprising journey through the complexities of Catholicism, desire, and human trespass.

Martin Moran makes his living as an actor and writer in New York City. He has appeared in many Broadway and off-Broadway plays, including Titanic, Cabaret, Bells Are Ringing, and Floyd Collins. He won a 2004 Obie Award for The Tricky Part.

Note: The Tricky Part contains mature and sensitive themes.

Simply sublime

Quietly steadily builds to the moment you don’t want to listen to, but must to move beyond.

Wonderful, moving and full of compassion

I tend to ignore audiobooks that are shorter than 2 hours but I’m so glad I gave this a chance — it blew me away.
