The Marrying Kind
A Novel
Ken O’Neill
When a gay couple frustrated by straights decides to boycott weddings, a city-wide campaign is born and saying “I do” will never again be so easy.Adam More, a successful wedding planner, has been having nightmares featuring the Bush family and characters from Gone with the Wind. His partner, Steven Worth, a columnist with The Gay New York Times, is understandably concerned. However, all comes to a comic point when Adam decides he can no longer promote marriage for heterosexuals until he can legally marry Steven, who, through his column, ignites a marriage boycott among the many gay florists, hairdressers, chefs, waiters, and musicians who keep the wedding industry humming.
Ken O’Neill is a New York–based writer and activist whose blog (http://themarryingkind.org) is devoted to marriage equality.
