Wouldn’t it be great if a porn character stepped out of the television, into your life? Well, be careful what you wish for, because that’s how Calvin and Peachy end up looking after Joey. And teaching the ultimate boy ingenue everything he needs to know to be be a gay man in New York City. The big test? A fabulous party on Fire Island. But first, they have to get invited. This will involve a rogues’ gallery of gay Manhattanites, including portly publicist Bunce van den Troell; theatrical investor Sir Desmond Norma; priapic publisher Stuart Bergman; and lubricant king Fred Pflester. Tender, witty and utterly deranged, Looking After Joey will make you wish that you, too, had a porn character at your kitchen table asking, “So, when can I have sex?”

David Pratt 
is the author of three novels, Wallaçonia, Looking After Joey, and the Lambda Literary Award-winning Bob the Book.

"Read Looking After Joey with the expectation of laughing throughout, but there’s more to it than that. The social commentary is razor sharp, and the ultimate destination is surprisingly moving." - 'Nathan Burgoine, Out in Print

"Looking AfterJoey is a delicious romp that skewers every pretension it meets in its rollicking, madcap dash to a surprisingly touching finish. The laughs never stop coming; neither do the deep truths this tender book reveals on every page." - Joel Derfner, author of Swish and Lawfully Wedded Husband

"There is this funny book on the surface of Looking After Joey, but at a core level there is plenty of meaning." - On Top Down Under Book Reviews.
