Bryan Batt, has written a memoir about growing up gay with his mother in New Orleans. It is funny, serious and everything in between as well. He talks about his time preparing in a pagent and wearimng a pink hoop skirt. The rudolph the red nose reindeer light bulb that burns his nose. The story about coming out of the closet, his mother's antics " His relationship with his father, the ups and downs with his mother's illness. Through it all Gayle has inner strength to not quit and keep on going. Bryan talks about the beautiful inner strength that each one gives to each other.
I could keep on going. He recalls the antics of his mother Gayle. She is the great strength in their lives.. She is beautiful, and charming, and has hard as nails strength.
The book is very funny, especially the part when he's father tells Bryan. Bryan, you can't leave the house without three things. One of the things is his testicles. I couldn't stop laughing. Tears starting rolling down my face.
If you are looking for a quick and funny read this book is for you.
Bryan, is a actor. Most recently he plays a character, Sal in Mad Men. A closet gay art director in the ad agency. He has done broadway shows such as CATS, Beauty and the Beast. He is a activist in many organizations that he supports. Bryan and his partner of twenty years both own Hazelnut. A accessory and fine gift boutique.
This is the character of Salvatore Romono. He looks like a mafiosa. I was so surprised by the transformation of Bryan Batt to Salvatore. Me personally, I think he is handsome. How gorgeous with a beautiful chiselled bone structure.
BRING BACK SALVATORE ROMANO!!!
