It took a hundred pages until I really got into this story. I almost stopped reading, but glad I continued on. The story spans over several decades 1930's till late 1950's. Author weaves his life with controversial topics of the times which to me parallels the turmoil we currently are experiencing. The main character is a gay man who attempts to live a reclusive yet productive life. As a young man he has employers such as Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo and Lev Trotsky, which in the 1950's when he is only 30 labels him as a communist. The newspapers twist facts and make up fiction (very similar to today's media), which ultimately is the demise of Harrison Sheppard.
