Leroy Aarons, an award-winning journalist and playwright, was a national correspondent for The Washington Post and executive editor of The Oakland Tribune. He is the founder and past president of the National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association.
Bobby Griffith was an all-American boy ...and he was gay. Faced with an irresolvable conflict-for both his family and his religion taught him that being gay was "wrong"-Bobby chose to take his own life. Prayers for Bobby , nominated for a 1996 Lambda Literary Award, is the story of the emotional journey that led Bobby to this tragic conclusion. But it is also the story of Bobby's mother, a fearful churchgoer who first prayed that her son would be "healed," then anguished over his suicide, and ultimately transformed herself into a national crusader for gay and lesbian youth. As told through Bobby's poignant journal entries and his mother's reminiscences, Prayers for Bobby is at once a moving personal story, a true profile in courage, and a call to arms to parents everywhere.

看瞭一大半,我媽不讓我看瞭。我真該把這本書翻譯好瞭給她看。跟電影比起來,有更多的細節和心理值得品味……

評分看完電影以後馬上找瞭書,一口氣給讀完瞭。這幾天滿腦子都是Bobby,心情很沉重。我們寜可沒有這本書的存在;我們希望你還活著。
評分Prayers for Bobby, Prayers for everyone.
評分3.5/5 Aarons does a decent job chronicling Mary Griffith’s transformation into a devout crusader for gay rights due to the loss of her son. Although the writing here leans towards the mediocre, PfB offers insights into the plights of American gay teens in the 70s/80s and an important message about self-acceptance that still is relevant today.
