Description
In Tongues A Novel by Thomas Grattan In 2001, a young man from Minnesota takes a bus to New York City, driven by a desire to find his place in the world. He lands a job walking dogs for Manhattan's wealthy elite, but it's not until he meets two powerful gallery owners that his life takes a dramatic turn. As he becomes embroiled in their exclusive world, Gordon's charm and ambition begin to blur the lines between employee, muse, lover, and mentor. As he navigates the city's punishing rhythm and the complexities of his own desires, Gordon's pursuit of belonging becomes a perilous game of self-discovery. With its winsome lyricism and pointed emotion, In Tongues is a heart-pounding novel about the terror of finding one's place in the world. A finalist for the 2025 Lambda Literary Award for Gay Fiction, this novel chronicles Gordon's journey from the Midwest to New York and beyond, exploring themes of family, art, sex, and class.
