Robert Sweet shows a virtuosic command of fictional techniques, but he is not showing off. His style is never merely an overlay, but always organic to the stories. And in this day when so many writers are specialists in the angst of their demographic group, Sweet manages to imbue his characters with human credibility and their situations with utterly recognisable tensions. And probably because of this, 'White Sambo' offers a more powerful and touching vision of gay life than one could find in more politicised accounts. Here, it is always the people who matter. For me this book was a find.
