Description
Dustin Lance Black's memoir 'Mama's Boy' is a powerful exploration of family, love and acceptance. Born into a conservative Mormon household, Black's mother Anne defied expectations to raise three sons and escape abuse, finding salvation in an unlikely faith. When Black came out to his mother at 21, she was terrified for his future, but their relationship ultimately became a beacon of hope and inspiration. The book takes readers on a journey from the steps of the US Supreme Court to the woodsheds of East Texas, revealing the challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals and their families. With unflinching honesty, Black shares his own story of self-discovery and the struggles he faced growing up in a divided household. A heart-wrenching and ultimately uplifting tale, 'Mama's Boy' is a story that needs to be told now more than ever.
