A Century Divided

By Silvia Hildebrandt

1922. Young farmer's son Caleb Milton arrives in New York City, broke, ambitious, gay and in search for a new romance. And indeed: the Roaring Twenties offer promising opportunities for the gay community in the Big Apple. In thriving Prohibition era, Caleb begins a passionate affair with the flamboyant salesman Tristan Somersmoore. But as the decades go by, their long term off-and-on relationship is under constant threat. The judgment of society and their own sexual insecurities tear them apart. Suffering through the crushing waves of the Great Depression and the trauma of the Second World War, can Caleb and Tristan finally find a place for their love? "A Century Divided" tells a not-so average family and love story in the story telling tradition of Hanya Yanagihara, Andr? Aciman and David Leavitt. If you liked "Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda," "Less," "Boy Erased," or "Call me by your name", here's the new epic gatsby-esque LGBT historical novel spanning a whole century.
