"My adventures among people in the gay scene triggered my awareness of the much broader diversity of human nature. They have enriched my own life far beyond the boundaries of my existence thus far. My story ventures into the experiences of many others. Much of it belongs to a universal experience of men and more in particular of those men who have a chance – or simply take it – to step outside their social and cultural confines and allow themselves to build their own conventions – and values – along the line of their own observations and their own logic of life." "I do not believe that in our western world we have yet reached the point where human sexuality and human culture are settled in their proper place. I find it strange – in fact: unacceptable - that sexual habits or preferences should create any cultural division at all." The books explores the manifold dimensions of the gay scene, including the high incidence of young men whose youth was tainted by neglect or abuse and a severe lack of education. E.J. Walters is a nom de plume of the author, who is a Dutch citizen, living in Amsterdam.
