A plague-era memorial
A soulful novel set in New York City at the height of the AIDS crisis “is a meditation on the intertwined nature of love and loss”; it “confronts readers with uncomfortable truths about vulnerability, mortality, and the limits of human connection, while showing that meaning can still be found amid suffering.” —Anna Horsch reviews A Friend of Dorothy’s, by Richard Willett (Los Angeles: Magic Show Press, 2025) $25.99 / 9798992339802
