Life in the historic village of Athens on the Hudson is about to change forever. A closeted descendant of its Dutch founders is bravely starting a garden club that will expose its old and new secrets against a colorful cast of greedy developers, ruthless real estate agents, entrenched old timers, an incoming stream of artists who cannot afford New York, middle-aged gay men collecting Victoriana, and their train of single women friends, all fighting for a piece of the newly hot riverfront resort. The Boys' Garden Club reads like a humorous midsummer night's dream further gone awry, a fable skillfully navigated by a brave Jane Austen-inspired character; a cautionary folk tale where a reawakened queer Rip Van Winkle utters a twenty-first century Yankee ode to aging with dignity.

Ernesto Pujol is the author of Walking Art Practice: Reflections on Socially Engaged Paths (Triarchy Press, London, 2018). He is known for his nonfiction through critical essays on contemporary culture and interviews about the global challenges of art as social practice. Pujol is launching his fiction with a series of character-driven novels: The Boys' Garden Club (originally self-published under the pen name of E. D. Pujol in NY, 2012) and The Dog Walker of Philadelphia (Amazon, 2024).
