What the audience can never see is that, hidden behind the smoke and mirrors of his act, there is a whole world of secrets and lies… And a disappearance boy.In his acclaimed fourth novel, Neil Bartlett once again performs his trademark trick of slipping into the hidden spaces of queer history and bringing them vividly to life.
