Laugh now. Cry later.

It's London, 2014, and Hal Lancaster, son and heir of Henry, Duke of Lancaster, is in a holding pattern: his mother is dead, his father is dying or remarrying or bith, his siblings are fighting, his internship is pointless, and nobody will leave him alone. On other words, everything is as it should be, and yet nothing is right.

 

Over the course of a year of partying, drinking, and flirting to dubious consequence, Hal is tested by brutal family legacies, Catholic guilt, and the terrifying possiblity of being loved. All of which i compicated by a pattern of abuse that threatens to chase Hal into adulthood. The House of Lancaster will never be the same.

 

Crackling with intelligence and wit, Allen Bratton retells Shakespeare in this lush, queer, at times harrowing novel of family, legacy, and what it means to be alove today
