Metes and Bounds

In Metes and Bounds, surf, sand, and sex meet in the macho world of construction workers. For narrator Matt, "e;the greatest comfort of surfing comes in the sureness and instinct."e; Matt is not just coming of age, he's coming out, and in the sun-bleached world of the North Carolina beaches his burgeoning sexuality can toss as many curves as a wave. Through his longings and self-discovery, Matt knows he cannot let others triumph over being the man he knows to be. As he says, "e;Being a surfer meant you got out, faced your own fears, and did it."e; So too does Matt, in this stirring, memorable novel. Jay Quinn's Lambda-nominated books transcend the traditional gay novel, exploring universal issues of marriage, aging parents, addiction, and attraction, all while presenting unique characters and page-turning drama.
