Book Synopsis Choir Boy by : Charlie Anders

Download or read book Choir Boy written by Charlie Anders. This book was released on 2005. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Choir Boy is the story of Berry, a 12 year old choirboy who wants to hold his voice back from changing at almost any cost. Berry tries unsuccessfully to castrate himself, then convinces a clinic to treat him as a transsexual. The pills Berry takes keep his voice from changing, but they also open a door Berry can't close. He faces a world of gender issues that he hadn't expected, and explores a universe way larger than anything he's experienced so far. Full of bizarre humour and surreal touches, this is Günther Grass' The Tin Drum mixed with Eugenides' Middlesex.

Book excerpt: "An exhilarating, multi-layered new play."—The Guardian "Stirring and stylishly told . . . McCraney's crispest and most confident work."—Daily News "Greatly affecting. . . . It takes a brave writer to set his language against the plaintive beauty of the hymns and spirituals . . . but McCraney's speech holds its own, locating poetry even in casual vernacular and again demonstrating his gift for simile and metaphor."—The Village Voice The Charles R. Drew Prep School for Boys is dedicated to the creation of strong, ethical black men. Pharus wants nothing more than to take his rightful place as leader of the school's legendary gospel choir, but can he find his way inside the hallowed halls of this institution if he sings in his own key?

Tarell Alvin McCraney is author of The Brother/Sister Plays: The Brothers Size, In the Red and Brown Water, and Marcus; Or the Secret of Sweet.
