Inhaltsangabe

  • In this new era of progressive, politically charged LGBT literature, Weekend is a throwback: a literate and intimate novel about lesbian relationships at a crossroads, including a couple in their (gasp) fifties. The novel takes place in Ontario cottage country; Logan has taken Ajax to their cottage to celebrate Ajax's 50th birthday and to pop the question, but the landmark celebration is making Ajax reconsider what she wants out of life. Elliott and Joe are the butch/androgynous couple next door, and parents of a new child; the stresses of caring for an infant are making them realize how shaky their relationship is.
  • Jane Eaton Hamilton has written eight previous books, including a memoir (Mondays are Yellow, Sundays are Grey) that was on the Sunday Times bestseller list and was a Guardian Book of the Year, and a story collection (Hunger) that was a Ferro-Grumley Award for LGBT Literature finalist. Jane had been ill for the past several years, however, and Weekend is her first book of fiction in thirteen years. (None of her previous books are still in print.)
  • Weekend delves deep into intimate human relationships; as such the book deserves to be read and enjoyed by non-LGBT readers.
