To No End - by Josh Scheinert (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Edgar wasn't supposed to be a father. Closeted and alone, he resigned himself to a life as a simple florist.

But when a friend offers to carry a child for him, Edgar is captured by renewed purpose. Year by year, To No End follows Edgar's inseparable bond to his son, David. But as David grows up, the country's politics change. In the face of a government bent towards dictatorship and homophobia, Edgar sends his son away. It is a decision that forever changes the men as individuals and their relationship as father and son.

In an age when progress is cycling back to repression, To No End make us rethink what it means to be devoted to the ones we love and defiant against those who demand our submission.
