Benjamin Law considers himself pretty lucky to live in Australia: he can hold his boyfriend's hand in public and lobby his politicians to recognise same-sex marriage. But as the child of migrants, he's also curious about how different life might have been had he grown up in Asia. So he sets off to meet his fellow Gaysians.

The weakness of the book is that he is too aware of his limitations as a writer and so doesn't tackle serious personal themes that might elevate his work to the next level. The best writers in this genre ([a:Augusten Burroughs|3058|Augusten Burroughs|http://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1337222509p2/3058.jpg], [a:David Sedaris|2849|David Sedaris|http://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1213737698p2/2849.jpg], [a:David Rakoff|3870005|Rakoff|http://www.goodreads.com/assets/nophoto/nophoto-U-50x66-251a730d696018971ef4a443cdeaae05.jpg]) reveal a vulnerability at the same time as they amuse and entertain. Maybe that book is still to come in his career, and I'll keep reading with enjoyment until it does. ( )
