Customer Reviews of The Weekend
People are Funny I just saw the movie adaptation of this novel and it was everything I hoped it would be. This was one of the first gay-themed novels I read after coming out and I will always remember the sharp dialogue and spare prose. The funny thing is it is unfair to label this "gay" fiction because it is such an incredible character study of many different types of people. Read the book, then hope you get a chance to see the movie with great performances by Gena Rowlands, Brooke Shields, and David Conrad.
Poetic
I read this book a few years back and decided to read it again recently. I remembered loving this book when I first read it and my second read confirmed why I loved it so much. It's just that Peter Cameron has an amazing way with words. In this book, he makes you understand each character by digging deep into their emotions and thoughts. This story feels so real and beautiful, even though this book's characters experience loss and discover the worst things about themselves. This truly is a great book.
Juvenile.
Look, I gave up on this book way too early to even be writing a review. I just want to suggest to readers unfamiliar with Camerson that they may prefer to start with Cameron's Leap Year, or perhaps some of Cameron's short stories.
