In Issue 4 of Unzipped, David Gerson and Stephen McMaster explore the vulnerability of becoming men; in particular, of living openly as gay men in the south. These two collections introduce you to the awkward innocence of first love, the awkward cruelty of last loves, the beauty of love between friends, and complicated familial relationships. Turning these pages could bring you tears of laughter or tears of sorrow, but it won't leave you bored for a moment.
Loved these memoir pieces! Fantastic writing and intimate descriptions of growing up amidst family challenges and southern culture. I cried and laughed as I read.
