Description In Pursuance Of Books My Loose Thread

Larry is a teenager wrestling not only with his sexuality and the implications of a physical relationship with his younger brother, but with the very point of his existence. He is numb to almost all that surrounds him. As the book opens, Larry has been paid $500 by a senior to kill a fellow student and retrieve the boy's notebook. It seems simple enough. However, once Larry delves into the notebook, complications arise. An immensely powerful work that explores teenage depression, moral vacuity, and the confusion of love, this is a claustrophobic and harrowing piece of fiction.

A book that is numb, confusing thanks to an unreliable narrator, and full of conflicting emotions. A guy is in love with his brother and a lot of people die. Some fucked up things as per usual, but it's what you can expect with Dennis Cooper's work. Too confusing for my own good though.

Wow what a sad, messed up little story. If this is the type of stuff I can expect from Dennis Cooper I'm gonna have to read all of his work.

Not really my style I suppose - I understand this book is written to mimic the mind of a sexually confused teenager with a ton of issues but it just sort of felt like a 40 year old using 'so' and 'like' way too much. I did not HATE this book but I didn't really understand why I should like it. I guess this is a lame review - sorry haha!

Eeeeek very painfulhaunted by columbine and internalized homophobia and incest

Repression has an ugly face, forcing urges into the psyche. Larry loves a boy who loves his brother whom Larry loves. Murder, delusion, and lies ensue. Larry is confused.

In My Loose Thread, Dennis Cooper peers through the eyes of a teen psychotic to paint a convincing portrait of contemporary high school as a limbo of repressed and confused sexuality, inhabited by teens experiencing various gray shades of depression and blood/drug/alcohol toxicity levels. It's not a novel to sit down and savor, but one that yanks you in, perhaps against your wishes. By the end, you no longer wonder how tragedies like Columbine happen, but why they don't happen more often.The

This book pissed me off. The cover is filled with accolades about the writer. They say only he can tackle such a dangerous subject and get away with it. Bullshit. He shouldn't have got away with it.The story is about a bunch of idiot teens that are obsessed with gayness, sex, murder, and self-punishment. Many of them are cutters and wear the body scars like war medals. Obviously inspired by all of the recent school shooting and in particular the Columbine incident, the book follows one idiot as
