He said he would understand if it was too much for me that I could leave him that I was young I should be living I said to him I am living. Johnny Grant faces stark life decisions. Seeking answers he looks back to his relationship with Jerry Field. When they met nearly thirty years ago Johnny was 19 Jerry was 45. They fell in love and made a life on their own terms in Jerry's flat: 1 Nova Scotia House. Johnny is still there today--but Jerry is gone and so is the world they knew. As Johnny's mind travels between then and now he begins to remember stories of Jerry's youth: of experiments in living of radical philosophies of the many possibilities of queer love sex and friendship before the AIDS crisis devastated the queer community. Slowly he realizes what he must do next-and attempts to restore ways of being that could be lost forever. Nova Scotia House takes us to the heart of a relationship a community and an era. It is both a love story and a lament bearing witness to the enduring pain of the AIDS pandemic and honouring the joys and creativity of queer life. Intimate visionary and profoundly original it marks the debut of a vibrant new voice in contemporary fiction and a writer with a liberating new story to tell.
