The Secret Life of Remy Walsh

Zusatztext

Remy Walsh is buried in secrets. The big ones he keeps from his friends are his maman, the Cajun beauty Aurore, is housebound and trapped in her own world, and his runaway father left seven years ago without a word to Remy. He hates him. But Remy has another giant secret. Even though he and his boyfriend Trung are a popular couple at school, Remy is afraid to tell his mother he is gay. The last thing he wants to do is hurt this fragile being he loves so much. So he retreats into the cocoon that being an actor is, starring in his school's musical and forgetting for a time each day, during rehearsal, that he has so many problems eating at him. His home is about to literally come crashing down on him. He well knows, but doesn't believe, that secrets have a way of coming out. Will anyone come to his rescue?

Autorenportrait

A life spent in Texas led to a relocation adventure, and native Texas author Russell J. Sanders now resides in Las Vegas, Nevada. He and his husband were compelled to set out for parts unknown, and that led them to Vegas, where they are supremely happy. But they don't stay put. They've traveled the world, journeying to England, France, Italy, Japan, India, Bali, Jakarta, Toronto, Quebec City, Nova Scotia, Vancouver, Alaska, and Hawaii. And his novels are infused with locations as near as Ft. Worth, Chicago, Houston, and Las Vegas and as far away as Halifax. Who knows where he will lead readers next? But one thing is known, there will be Mexican food. Russell's on a quest to check out the Mexican cuisine in places both near and far. The not-so-good he has tried was in Wyoming; Jakarta, Indonesia, though, has some pretty decent enchiladas. The quest is to try, not to always be satisfied at what is found. So this Mexican food loving teacher, actor, director, singer, chef, and author loves adventure. And mostly, Russell's goal is to tell the world, through his writing, that we are all put on this earth to love one another, no matter our race, religion, or sexual preference.
