Tim and Pete

Baker's groundbreaking novel of simmering rage and justifiable violence follows combative ex-lovers Tim and Pete, thrown together on a bizarre trek from Laguna Beach, Calif., to Los Angeles. Sarcastic, satiric, violent, and exhilarating, Tim & Pete is a fiercely imagined, boldly realized vision of the cultural war raging in the hearts of the disenfranchised and in the streets of America.

Sexy, gripping, and utterly unrepressed, Tim and Pete is a freewheeling symposium on the themes of sex, art, homophobia, and radical gay terrorism." A nihilistic joyride through post-apocalyptic L.A. full of love gone bad, bitter humor, AIDS activism, and sex, drugs, and rock & roll."--David B. Feinberg, author of Eighty-Sixed.
