Raised on stories of self-sacrifice and moral duty, at eighteen Simon leaves home for Reverend Sun Myung Moon’s Unification Church, surrendering himself to a vision of divine purpose while denying the truth that he is gay. When his faith in the church collapses, Simon loses the belief system that had given his life purpose and meaning. Hollywood offers reinvention—but success in the film business, drug abuse, and the consequences of his choices draw Simon into a life he can no longer control.

“An honest and daring look at a troubled boy’s life. Poe does not shy away from the taboo, and in doing so, adroitly shines a light on that which is dark to so many.

It’s the content within, the themes explored, the love investigated, and the discovery of the self where the story’s strength lies.” -SPR Awards 2021 Reader's Notes #poebooksart #simonsmansion   https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07XSFFQM6 poebooks.net
