The journey toward self-actualization in today's society is not always an easy one. In Dennis Alan Kasten's touching memoir, however, the personal journey of a gay man in modern America is tenderly documented and reflected upon with startling honesty and poignancy. His struggles, his triumphs, his joys, and overall, his love of music-especially the piano-are all shared as the author takes us through his life and teaches us that the true meaning of our existence is to find the rainbow within: We must learn to celebrate our individuality, our special gifts and talents, and our uniqueness as someone specially created by God. This tale is that of a journey of hardships, love, loss, discrimination, betrayal, grief, fortitude, and above all, enduring hope.
