== Book Description ==<br />
Edward Johnson--to the observer--looks like he has everything: Great job, wonderful wife, fabulous house. But he's always known that something isn't quite right with his life, and his marriage. On odd occasions he "fools around" with his best friend, but that's nothing...right?<br />
<br />
Then one day, it all makes sense. One day he falls in love--for the very first time--with the 18 year old son of the people next door.<br />
<br />
And Edward's perfect suburban life falls apart.<br />
<br />

''"Both a haunting tale of sexual obsession and a stunning portrait of an ordinary man caught up in the throes of an illicit love and teetering on the brink of self-destruction, told with pinpoint psychological insight and mouth-watering prose, this is a splendid example of the storyteller's art, reminiscent of James Baldwin."''<br />

Victor J. Banis, author of The Man from C.A.M.P.<br />

''"Erastes has taken an unmentionable subject and faced at it head on and seen beauty where blandness existed before. An amazing job, Erastes, you sure have a definite winner here!"''<br />

<br />
''"A man desperately trying to derail the train on which his life rides — an anguishing and gripping account of latent self-discovery and a consequential adolescent infatuation in an age of judging eyes. At times endearing and romantic, embarrassing and cruel, Erastes has masterfully written another true-to-life novel steeped with hope and despair."''<br />

== Testimonial ==<br />
<br />
''An unsettling tale of loss, obsession and mystery, set on the bleak Norfolk Broads. Definitely one I'd recommend.'' --Donald Hardy, author of Lovers' Knot<br />
<br />
== Reviews ==<br />
<br />
"Mere Mortals" is a compelling story...the end result is an impressive combination of mystery and intrigue that is disturbing yet ultimately moving" <br />
<br />
--Edge New York<br />
<br />
"...storytelling that is not only fascinating, but so cleanly put together that any writer will, perhaps, be envious." <br />
<br />
--George Seaton - "Out in Print"<br />
<br />
"... It's a great story, written in true gothic style which keeps you guessing until the end." <br />
<br />
--Queer Magazine Online<br />
<br />
"...Erastes has hit the mark with this piece of historical fiction. Read it and love it. You won't be able to put it down until you discover the fate of Myles, Jude, and especially Crispin as they grapple with their forbidden longings and dreams..." <br />

<br />
== Book Description ==<br />
Edward Johnson--to the observer--looks like he has everything: Great job, wonderful wife, fabulous house. But he's always known that something isn't quite right with his life, and his marriage. On odd occasions he "fools around" with his best friend, but that's nothing...right?<br />
<br />
Then one day, it all makes sense. One day he falls in love--for the very first time--with the 18 year old son of the people next door.<br />
<br />
And Edward's perfect suburban life falls apart.<br />
<br />
== Testimonials ==<br />
<br />
Both a haunting tale of sexual obsession and a stunning portrait of an ordinary man caught up in the throes of an illicit love and teetering on the brink of self-destruction, told with pinpoint psychological insight and mouth-watering prose, this is a splendid example of the storyteller's art, reminiscent of James Baldwin.<br />
<br />
Victor J. Banis, author of The Man from C.A.M.P.<br />
<br />
<br />
Erastes has taken an unmentionable subject and faced at it head on and seen beauty where blandness existed before. An amazing job, Erastes, you sure have a definite winner here!<br />
<br />
Mykola Dementiuk, author of Holy Communion<br />
<br />
<br />
A man desperately trying to derail the train on which his life rides — an anguishing and gripping account of latent self-discovery and a consequential adolescent infatuation in an age of judging eyes. At times endearing and romantic, embarrassing and cruel, Erastes has masterfully written another true-to-life novel steeped with hope and despair.<br />
<br />
Erik Orrantia, author of Normal Miguel<br />
<br />
== Reviews ==<br />
<br />
"...Erastes particularly excels at creating a diversity of characters that jump off the page with unique personalities. No one person behaves the same way. Too often, authors rely on formulas that readers find over and over in the characters. Not Erastes. From an outgoing flirt to a confident and masculine-type, to a caring but mysterious doctor and a benevolent but too cautious member of the nobility, the novel includes it all."<br />

Erastes is a penname of a female author who lives in Norfolk, UK. "He" started to write [[homoerotic]] [[historical fiction]] because he couldn't find any other than the very few that were on the market, such as [[Gaywyck]] by [[Vincent Virga]] and the novels of [[Mary Renault]]. Erastes' goal is to drag gay romance into the mainstream.<br />

Erastes/Eromenos<br />
<br />
In the pederastic tradition of Classical Athens, the '''eromenos''' (Greek ἐρόμενος, pl. "eromenoi") was an adolescent boy who was in a love relationship with an adult man, known as the erastes (ἐραστής). The relationship was typically of a pedagogical nature and while it was also typically affectionate and passionate it was not necessarily sexual.</div>Erasteshttps://romancewiki.bham.ac.uk//index.php?title=Erastes&diff=104208Erastes2010-09-05T11:50:39Z<p>Erastes: /* Novels */</p>

Erastes/Eromenos<br />
<br />
In the pederastic tradition of Classical Athens, the '''eromenos''' (Greek ἐρόμενος, pl. "eromenoi") was an adolescent boy who was in a love relationship with an adult man, known as the erastes (ἐραστής). The relationship was typically of a pedagogical nature and while it was also typically affectionate and passionate it was not necessarily sexual.</div>Erasteshttps://romancewiki.bham.ac.uk//index.php?title=Erastes&diff=104207Erastes2010-09-05T11:48:06Z<p>Erastes: /* On the Web */</p>

Erastes is a penname of a female author who lives in Norfolk, UK. "He" started to write [[homoerotic]] [[historical fiction]] because he couldn't find any other than the very few that were on the market, such as [[Gaywyck]] by [[Vincent Virga]] and the novels of [[Mary Renault]]. Erastes' goal is to drag gay romance into the mainstream.<br />

Erastes/Eromenos<br />
<br />
In the pederastic tradition of Classical Athens, the '''eromenos''' (Greek ἐρόμενος, pl. "eromenoi") was an adolescent boy who was in a love relationship with an adult man, known as the erastes (ἐραστής). The relationship was typically of a pedagogical nature and while it was also typically affectionate and passionate it was not necessarily sexual.</div>Erasteshttps://romancewiki.bham.ac.uk//index.php?title=Transgressions&diff=79541Transgressions2008-11-28T12:19:12Z<p>Erastes: </p>

<br />
<br />
It is 1642. England is on the brink of civil war.<br />
<br />
David Caverly is a beautiful but indolent youth, who dreams of honour and glory and joining the King's Army. His father employs Jonathan Graie as an apprentice smith - Jonathan is a Puritan and although shocked by David's behaviour and blasphemous mouth, he is inexorably drawn to him.<br />
<br />
The English Civil War blows their world apart. This novel covers one of the most turbulent periods of English history where brother fought against brother, son against father.<br />
<br />
David and Jonathan go through hell in their search for truth and love, but will they ever find each other again?<br />

<br />
A great house, a family dispossessed. A sensitive young man, a powerful landowner, and the epic love that springs up between them.<br />
<br />
Ambrose Standish is a studious and fragile young man with dreams of regaining the great house his grandfather lost in a card game, but when Rafe Goshawk returns from the continent to claim the estate, their meeting sets them on a path of desire and betrayal which threatens to tear both of their worlds apart.<br />
<br />
Set in the post-Napoleonic years of the 1820's, Standish is a tale of these two men, and how the relationships they make affect their journey through Europe and through life.<br />
<br />
Painting a picture of homosexuality in Georgian England, illegal as it was and punishable by death, at heart it is a simple love story and the tale of one man's discoveries of his sexuality and his true feelings for the man who released it.<br />

<br />
In the pederastic tradition of Classical Athens, the '''eromenos''' (Greek ἐρόμενος, pl. "eromenoi") was an adolescent boy who was in a love relationship with an adult man, known as the erastes (ἐραστής). The relationship was typically of a pedagogical nature and while it was also typically affectionate and passionate it was not necessarily sexual.</div>Erasteshttps://romancewiki.bham.ac.uk//index.php?title=Erastes&diff=65146Erastes2008-06-02T08:51:52Z<p>Erastes: /* Novellas */</p>

* '''Author''': [[Erastes]]<br />
* '''Publisher''': Perseus Books<br />
* '''Year''': 2009<br />
* '''Setting''': England - 1642<br />
<br />
<br />
It is 1642. England is on the brink of civil war.<br />
<br />
David Caverly is a beautiful but indolent youth, who dreams of honour and glory and joining the King's Army. His father employs Jonathan Graie as an apprentice smith - Jonathan is a Puritan and although shocked by David's behaviour and blasphemous mouth, he is inexorably drawn to him.<br />
<br />
The English Civil War blows their world apart. This novel covers one of the most turbulent periods of English history where brother fought against brother, son against father.<br />
<br />
David and Jonathan go through hell in their search for truth and love, but will they ever find each other again?<br />

Erastes/Eromenos<br />
<br />
In the pederastic tradition of Classical Athens, the '''eromenos''' (Greek ἐρόμενος, pl. "eromenoi") was an adolescent boy who was in a love relationship with an adult man, known as the erastes (ἐραστής). The relationship was typically of a pedagogical nature and while it was also typically affectionate and passionate it was not necessarily sexual.</div>Erasteshttps://romancewiki.bham.ac.uk//index.php?title=Erastes&diff=56657Erastes2008-02-20T11:52:47Z<p>Erastes: /* Memberships */</p>
