Summary
Simon’s been to many places, but he can’t help but think that this feels more like home than almost all of them ever have. The feel of the soft crewneck and the leather seats against his back, the sweet smell of Wilhelm’s cologne, the sound of Mazzy Star overlapping with Wilhelm’s breathing, and the pattering of rain against the Cadillac windows—it’s everything Simon’s ever needed.
Or: The year is 1998 when Wilhelm, the son of two wealthy politicians, starts his first year of college. What he thinks will be a meaningless and uneventful school year quickly turns into quite the opposite as his seemingly perfect life collides with his new roommate’s more unconventional one.
Simon, an openly gay scholarship student and the frontman of an underground band, finds himself stumbling into an unexpected friendship with his new roommate. As complicated feelings arise and their relationship becomes increasingly more unusual, they’re both left to wonder if friendship is really enough for either of them.
