SPOILERS BELOW till around p. 500

Am I the only one who really hated the homo-turn on this book? I think it undermines what it shows about friendship in a really unfortunate way - with the breaking point being Willem and Jude. Plus, not everyone in this world is gay, man. Fuck you.

I read a review from a literary review which I trust which mocked its purple prosy and teenage cheesiness. So I won't read it.

The homosexuality is integral to the novel.

That said I hated those faggots

>homo turn
I always hate it when an author does something like that.

When I was young, I read a lot of historical novels and in one the author (who got some prices for his book) decided to make two historical characters gay and fuck each other at the end.

It read like some dreadful fanfic.

Michael Chabon is another one who feels he's obligated to put some homo character in each fucking book.

Pretty much this. Mendelsohn's review in the NYRB confirmed my worst suspicions so I didn't bother.
