A heartrending novel about two gay teens coming of age in New York City in 1990 - perfect for fans of It' s a Sin and Adam Silvera. Wannabe film student Adam is seventeen and being asked out on his first date. Heart racing, he accepts, quickly falling in love with Callum, just like the movies always promised. On his eighteenth birthday, Ben is forced out of his home after his mother finds his stash of gay magazines. But in New York City, his sexuality begins to feel less like a secret and more like a badge of honour. Then Callum disappears, leaving Adam heartbroken, and Ben realizes his new world is more dangerous than he thought. When Adam finds Callum again, he learns the boy he loves will die. But in a chance meeting on the Christopher Street piers, Ben and Adam fall into each other' s orbit, opening their eyes and hearts to the possibilities of gay love and life. A love letter to New York, 90s culture, and the liberating power of queer friendship, When You Call My Name is a story about finding the people who can really see you - in all your messy glory.
Tucker Shaw is a writer and editor who first found his family in New York City' s East Village in 1991 when he was twenty-three. Over the decades he' s worked in magazines, newspapers, and advertising. When You Call My Name is his first novel for Penguin Random House.
