Beschreibung

eers, Gears, and Queers: Grease Guns, Church Gossip, and Coming Out Clumsy Welcome to Garrett, East Texas, where the red clay dust is thick, the church gossip is thicker, and keeping a secret is a full-time survival sport. David Lee Sherman has his small-town routine down to a science. By day, he works the counter at his family's hardware store, serving up friendly smiles and the right size PVC pipe to neighbors who've known him since diapers. By Saturday night, he's at the Garrett Speedway, trading tobacco-stained laughs with grease-stained mechanics and dodging any question that hits too close to home. The strategy is simple: laugh fast, dodge clean, and never let the silence point at you. Because David Lee does have a secret. He's gay, completely single in the city limits, and pretty sure the local preacher wouldn't approve of his private theology-mainly that Jesus loves his gay ass. But a secret life two towns over has a expiration date. When a late-night drive with a guy from Tyler gets spotted by the wrong set of headlights, the small-town rumor mill goes into hyperdrive. Suddenly, the friendly glances turn into staged interventions, the hardware store regulars start taking their business across the county line, and David Lee's hyper-polished mask begins to crack. Faced with a family bible-thumping ultimatum and a town demanding he play a part he never auditioned for, David Lee has to decide: keep serving himself in bite-sized pieces to keep the peace, or flip the table, floor the gas, and see who actually has his back. Full of razor-sharp Southern wit, gritty dirt-track atmosphere, and a unapologetic heart, Beers, Gears, and Queers is a story about finding out that the only thing more terrifying than being exposed is never being truly known.
