Party of One meets Finding the Boyfriend Within : A brilliant exploration of what it means to be gay and single in a world where the push to partner with a man has replaced the pressure to marry a woman, by a terrifically talented thirtysomething writer/producer for Canada's CBC
Journalist Steven Bereznai , presentable, accomplished, well educated, successful, and in his early 30s , has never had a boyfriend. "Is Singlesville my final destination?" Bereznai wonders. Or does a partner await? And what does he really want? To pair up, or to maintain the independence of a single life? Now in Gay and Single . . . Forever?, Bereznai investigates the basic question of whether there can be acceptance for him and other single gay men, as single men,where the push to partner with a man has replaced the pressure to marry a woman. Bringing together a perfect mix of personal narrative, historical research, interviews with dozens of gay men , including Andrew Holleran, Michael Bronski, and Wayson Choy , and intensely penetrating social and psychological insight, Gay and Single . . . Forever? will resonate deeply among gay men ,many of whom, even today, spend most of their lives not in a relationship.
