In 1940, when the Red-Headed Kid is born, sex is a subject that is not discussed. Men who openly want sex are perverts. Woman who like sex are whores and homosexuals are social pariahs. But, beneath the surface things are not what they seem. Kinsey has begun to ask questions that have never before been asked, and, as the fifties commence, the subject begins to come out of the closet. No one is supposed to do it yet, but at least the world is beginning to openly admit it exists. In spite of the sexual content of the RHK series, Part 1 isn't overtly sexual. It's the story of a small boy growing up in a warm family in the forties and early fifties. It chronicles the rise of the baby boomers. It discusses their parental relationships and the social norms that inform and shape the attitudes of a cohort that is taught never to grow old. Only the last chapter, Spermarch, deals directly with the subject of sexual awakening. A prelude to Part 2, it sees our hero nearly overwhelmed by adolescence as he unknowingly prepares for a time in which men and women can experience sex without fear. It is a moment of absolute freedom, of a sort that might never be seen again. Parts 1 and 2 are available from Amazon Books in paperback or for the Kindle. Part 3 will be published in 2020.
