"Standish" by Erastes Pub. by PD Publishing - book trailer

A great house, a family dispossessed. A sensitive young man, a powerful landowner, and the epic love that springs up between them.

Ambrose Standish is a studious and fragile young man with dreams of regaining the great house his grandfather lost in a card game, but when Rafe Goshawk returns from the continent to claim the estate, their meeting sets them on a path of desire and betrayal which threatens to tear both of their worlds apart.

Set in the post-Napoleonic years of the 1820's, Standish is a tale of these two men, and how the relationships they make affect their journey through Europe and through life.

Painting a picture of homosexuality in Georgian England, illegal as it was and punishable by death, at heart it is a simple love story and the tale of one man's discoveries of his sexuality and his true feelings for the man who released it.

Thank you!

[deeshette]

dude, that book totally rocked. It really has to be made in to a feature film. The lubricator must write a screen play and direct this masterpiece. Can't wait!

Thank you so much - I'm very happy you liked it. I'd been thinking about sending it to Hollywood or Channel Four, but have no idea how that's done. So pleased you liked the book.

All the best,

Erastes
