Through it Came Bright Colors by Trebor Healey
The story of Neill Cullane, a closeted, conflicted 21 year-old that lives in two worlds that seem light-years apart, but that he travels between in a beaten-up VW car. At home, he's the dutiful son of Frank and Grace, and devoted brother to Peter, whose battle with a cruel, disfiguring cancer pulls the Cullane family together, however reluctantly. But in the shadows of the San Francisco underworld, Neill finds release with his secret lover Vince Malone, a beautiful junkie/philosopher/thief whose burning desire for truth lights the path Neill always knew he'd travel. Through Vince, Neil learns about honesty and love and finds the courage to confront his family in the face of tragedy and loss.
Trebor Healey's compelling tale of crisis around a family illness and an unexpected first gay love is poetic and reflective, angry, rowdy, funny, and triumphant- Felice Picano, author of Ambidextrous and A House on the Ocean, A House on the Bay; Love hurts, love heals - that's the crystalline message at the core of Trebor Healey's complex, accomplished coming-of-age story about a cautiously queer suburban kid whose heart is unexpectedly squeezed hard by a young junkie's quicksilver mind and beautiful lean body. - Richard Labonte, reviewer, Book Marks and Q Syndicate; Sweet, sad, gritty, and real. Healey delivers coming out as apocalypse - tender, destructive, punk. - Michelle Tea, author of The Chelsea Whistle
