<DIV><DIV><b>In the shifting social landscape of America in the 1960s, a mother struggles to understand&mdash;and accept&mdash;her son&rsquo;s homosexuality<BR><BR></b></div><DIV>Tessa Lynn considers herself independent and progressive, a liberated woman of the 1960s. And yet, when she receives a letter from her youngest son, Jeff, informing her that he is gay, Tessa is distraught. At a time when homosexuality is regarded as a mental illness, she struggles with how best to be a parent to a gay son&mdash;and how to protect her family from the prejudices of the era.</div><DIV>Elegant and subtly drawn, <i>Consenting Adult</i> is a stunning tribute to familial bonds, and a sympathetic portrait of a mother whose best intentions are often clouded by the stereotypes of her time.</div></div>
