Elijah and Danny Silver don't get on. Way back in the mists of time, when Danny was small and Elijah was tiny, they were inseparable. But something has changed. They have grown into very different young men. Sixteen year old Elijah is the New Age, crusty type. He's gentle, kind, dreamy and introspective. He beams upon people with a kind of beatific grace and people like him for it. Twenty-three year old Danny is uptight, career-minded, brand-conscious. He's always impeccably turned out. He's so intent on where he's going, he often forgets where he actually is. Elijah feels disapproved of by Danny and stubbornly refuses to even try to live up to someone else's standards. Danny is both jealous of and infuriated by Elijah.

One of my favourite ones was stream-of-consciousness, vague-musings around subjects, no-action but uber-cool gay love story by an experimental poet called 'Czech Jewellery'. Ouch. It was awful. I loved it.

I fear I am old... No, actually I am glad and smug. I never thought that the state of perpetual teenagedom is something to aspire too. I think this is why I am out of touch with modern culture.
