In her novel, FREAKS AND REVELATIONS, Davida Wills Hurwin not only touches on the very sensitive subject of gay and lesbian rights but shows the back story of those who are suppressed by gay-hate, and those responsible for the suppression. SHe follows the true story of a hate crime in vivid and horrifyingly touching scenes, where she weaves two live thats are drastically different from childhood to the point where they collide in a moment of hate. By alternating her story between a gay teen struggling to understand and define himself, and a teen that is being beaten down into naziism by all the hate he experiences, Hurwin makes a difficult true story into a beautifully crafted tale of woe.
