A Density of Souls
Written in the decade of the crucifixion-like death of Matthew Shepard and the gruesome dragging death of James Byrd, Jr., A Density of Souls, by young writer Christopher Rice (progeny of gothic writer Anne Rice and poet and painter Stan Rice), is a mystery and gay-coming-of-age story that is powered, in part, by the current of hate pulsing through America. This is a time when gay bars are bombed, Fred Phelps sports a website called godhatesfags.com, loose cannons like Timothy McVeigh kill for hateful ideas they defend to the last, and Columbine High killer classmates Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold kill for hateful ideas they don't even understand.
