Title
Unmentionables - Paperback
by David Greene (Author)
Winner of the Book of the Year Bronze Medal for Gay Literary Fiction
Unmentionables tells a powerful and poignant story set against the turbulent backdrop of the American Civil War. It follows two couples whose lives and loves challenge the boundaries of race, class, and societal norms: a wealthy, white, straight couple and a Black, enslaved gay couple.
Jimmy, a field hand, gradually develops a deep fascination-and ultimately romantic love-for Cato, a house servant on a nearby plantation. Their relationship explores themes of forbidden love, resilience, and hope amidst unimaginable hardship.
Praise for Unmentionables:
- "One of the best novels of the year for any grown-up-a truly life-affirming read." - Kindle Nation Daily
- "Superb gay historical fiction with a contemporary relevance. An enlightening exploration of the hidden aspects of our past. Five stars." - Foreword Clarion Review
- "A moving and profound novel that shows how love can triumph over cruelty, even in the harshest conditions. The characters are beautifully crafted, their emotions genuine and compelling. An emotionally resonant and redemptive story, with richly detailed minor characters that breathe life into every page." - IndieReader
