Son of God: A Novel of Innocence Rediscovered tells the triumphant story of a deeply conflicted man named Gabriel. Gabriel is gay and is married to a woman, a life that directly opposes the truth of who he is. Gabriel is terrified to admit this core truth to himself. Set in Brooklyn, NY, during the early 2000s, it explores the specific fears that closeted gay men are terrified of facing, in particular, the fear that even being thought of as gay will be emasculating. Gabriel is encountering his inner demons during a time when American culture was still in the beginning phases of confronting its own homophobia. At that time and especially in the times preceding it, gay men adopted one of the two most common approaches: either never outwardly acting on their natural sexuality or doing so while living a double life. We see the stark contrast between being true to who we are and living the nightmare of not truly living at all. Gabriel's story, although specifically about the process of coming out, is also about the larger truth: if we do not unconditionally love ourselves, we can never love others or let love into our hearts. The book reminds us that love conquers all and forms the foundation for facing any dilemma.
