From Stonewall Award winner Bill Konigsberg, a remarkable,
funny, sexy, heartbreaking story of two teen boys finding each other
in New York City at the height of the AIDS epidemic.

The first thing I noticed about C.J. Gorman was his plexiglass
bra.


It's 1987 in New York City, and Micah is at a dance club, trying
to pretend he's more out and outgoing than he really is. C.J.
isn't just out - he’s complete out there, and Micah can't help
but be both attracted to and afraid of someone who travels so
loudly and proudly through the night.


A connection occurs. Is it friendship? Romance? Is C.J. the one
with all the answers ... or does Micah bring more to the relationship
that it first seems? As their lives become more and more entangled
in the AIDS epidemic that’s laying waste to their
community, and the AIDS activism that will ultimately bring a strong
voice to their demands, whatever Micah and C.J. have between
them will be tested, strained, pushed, and pulled - but it will also
be a lifeline in a time of death, a bond that will determine
the course of their futures.


In Destination Unknown, Bill Konigsberg returns to a
time he knew well as a teenager to tell a story of identity, connection,
community, and survival.






Perfect for fans of John Green and Nicola Yoon

From Bill Konigsberg, award-winning author of Out of
Pocket and Openly Straight

A heart-breaking, life-affirming YA novel that sees a tough subject
dealt with humour, compassion and unflinching truth.
