Meet Peter.
Meet him as a babe, snug in his mother's arms, until a neighbour warns she'll turn him funny. Meet him at school, where sex education class tells him that the sex he's already having is so funny, it might very well kill him. Meet him with the boy he had a crush on at school, and as he picks his way through the debris of culture wars past and present.
Meet him with the scent of sex fresh on his skin or as he comes out again and again, until the final, devastating, reckoning with his past.
An episodic journey trough one queer man's life, Funny is one of those books where the only thing that happens is everything.
