Why This Must Be Read: Jack invites Daniel to his parents' for the Christmas holiday, and what proceeds from there is, indeed, not your typical warm, fuzzy holiday story. Told entirely from Daniel's POV, this story is as much a sharp, insightful character study of Jack as it is of Daniel, of the relationship between two men who've both lost in ways similar and dissimilar and who've found themselves in the same place, shaped with beautifully evocative, bittersweet imagery and language, mood and pace.
Author's Summary: "Daniel makes some discoveries while visiting Jack's family over Christmas."
