No View

Ted, a new resident in the apartment building, opens his door to find her standing there-wearing a bathrobe. It's the beginning of his relationship with Zip and the other tenants that will change all of their lives forever.
Ted meets Eddie, the super, or is he the owner; Gloria, a shy young woman with an eye problem; Sam, Gloria's over-protective, lesbian sister; Jerry, a gay black man and Zip's best friend; Vera, an artist with a dark vision haunting her; and Bill, a dapper gentleman with a secret. Ted is drawn to the vivacious Zip, but it's the courageous Gloria who captures his heart.
As time passes, the residents grow closer and closer, their individual loneliness and isolation lessening as the group coalesces. When a death surprises the small community, Ted discovers the reality behind his neighbors' lives and learns about the power of compassion and kindness and its limits-lessons that would last a lifetime.
Set in the 1960s, No View offers a portrait of a revolutionary time in American culture-including the changing attitudes toward gay and lesbian couples and the aftereffects of war.
This is an engaging, powerful, and very human story.
