by Martin Moran (Author)
A "marvelous, courageous and above all, thoughtful" memoir (The Washington Post) about a Catholic boy raised in a loving family who is haunted by the sexual abuse he experienced at summer camp.
Raised in a loving Catholic family in Denver, Martin Moran was a star student who imagined that he'd one day become a U.S. senator. When he was twelve years old, a camp counselor seduced him, initiating a sexual relationship that would last three years-and haunt Moran's life for decades. He discovered a passion for acting and built a career that would take him to Broadway, but only when Moran finally tracked down and confronted his abuser thirty years later could he finally forgive himself for someone's else trespass.
