Book excerpt: When Marian DeCaro, aged 40, checked into the hospital to have a melon-sized tumor removed from her uterus, the doctors found behind it little Frank, desperate for attention. And thus begins the saga of a boy named Phyllis. This humorous, witty, often touching memoir about the trials and tribulations of growing up an only child, a little pudgy and gay from the get-go, in the aluminum-sided walls of Little Falls, New Jersey, offers an antidote to the angst-ridden gay memoir.
