With his sensational debut, Paul Golding, a writer of breathtaking skill and unflinching perception, joins Edmund White and Andrew Hollingsworth as a major chronicler of contemporary gay life. Cruising the seamy underbelly of London, James Moore is as eager to repel men as he is to attract them. But beneath his cynical exterior lie deeply embedded scars from a lifetime of betrayal and isolation. Born to negligent, self-absorbed parents and raised among upper crust society on a picturesque Spanish island, nine-year-old James is sent off to Catholic boarding school in England, where he is met with savageness by his peers and seduced by the twisted affections of his teachers. Charged with brutal honesty and caustic wit, The Abomination is a completely convincing, intensely graphic, disturbing yet electrifying account of one man's tortured coming of age.
