Description

A memoir of secrets and deception, Hiding Out is a candid account of Tina Alexis Allen's life. Born into a devout Catholic family in 1980s suburban Maryland, Tina was raised by her strict father, who hid his true nature behind a mask of religious devotion. As the youngest of thirteen children, Tina harboured a painful secret: she liked girls. Her father's response to this revelation shocked her - he too was gay. The two formed a close bond, sharing nights in gay clubs and experimenting with drugs, all while keeping their family in the dark. This memoir is a raw and unflinching look at the consequences of their double lives, and the complex relationship that developed between Tina and her father.
