From the back cover:
Marcus is sixteen and "sweet." Days before Hurricane Katrina strikes the projects of Louisiana, the currents of his life converge, overflowing into his close-knit community and launching the search for his sexual and personal identity on a cultural landscape infused with mysterious family creeds. The provocative, poignant, and fiercely humorous coming-of-age story of a young gay man in the South, Marcus is the stirring conclusion of The Brother/Sister Plays.
"[McCraney] writes with a passion and urgency that can't be faked." --The New York Times
"An extraordinary event... Marcus is an engaging, gently provocative, universal tale. And, yes, it's sweet." --The San Francisco Chronicle
"These are spiritual works that thrum with vitality, whether it's joyous or melancholy, told in vigorous language that artfully folds together slangy vernacular with bursts of haunting poetry." --Variety
