520    Sketchtasy takes place in that late-night moment when 
       everything comes together, and everything falls apart&
       #8212;it's an urgent, glittering, devastating novel about 
       the perils of queer world-making in the mid-'90s.  This is
       Boston in 1995, a city defined by a rabid fear of 
       difference. Alexa, an incisive twenty-one-year-old queen, 
       faces everyday brutality with determined nonchalance. 
       Rejecting middle-class pretensions, she negotiates past 
       and present traumas with a scathing critique of the world.
       Drawn to the ecstasy of drugged-out escapades, Alexa 
       searches for nourishment in a gay culture bonded by clubs 
       and conformity, willful apathy, and the specter of AIDS. 
       Is there any hope for communal care?  Sketchtasy brings 
       1990s gay culture startlingly back to life, as Alexa and 
       her friends grapple with the impact of growing up at a 
       time when desire and death are intertwined. With an 
       intoxicating voice and unruly cadence, this is a 
       shattering, incandescent novel that conjures the pain and 
       pageantry of struggling to imagine a future.
