In these modern, entertaining and suspenseful ten short stories, Philip Graham explores the way men, whether straight, gay or trans, young or old, deal with their very different sexual desires. Each decade of life is represented by a narrator who tells his own sexual story. The first is told by a four-year-old boy, fascinated by his parents’ body hair; the last by a ninety-four-year old moral philosopher, who may be terminally ill in a care home but still finds himself attracted to one of his carers. Each character describes the predicaments into which his sexual feelings lead him. In so doing, he casts light on how his sexuality is seen by others.. People of all genders who find sex more interesting than anything else, will find these stories make compelling reading.
