Robert Leleux describes his east Texas boyhood and coming of age, under the tutelage of his eccentric, bewigged, flamboyant, and knowing mother in his just released memoir, The Memoirs of a Beautiful Boy.
Elizabeth Forsythe Hailey, author of A Woman of Independent Means “marvels at how much humor [Leleux] has wrung out of a painful adolescence growing up gay and with what skillfully broad strokes he has breathed life into an impossible mother whose unwavering love for her son is the one saving constant in her self-obsessed universe. When reading David Sedaris leaves you wanting more, remember the name Robert Leleux.”
