Synopsis
Comic, erotic, and richly imagined, Allan Stein follows the journey of a compromised young teacher to Paris to uncover the sad history of Gertrude Stein's troubled nephew Allan. Having been fired from his job because of a sex scandal involving a student, the teacher travels to Paris under an assumed name -- that of his best friend, Herbert. In Paris, "Herbert" becomes enchanted by Stephane, a fifteen-year-old boy. As he unravels the gilded but sad childhood of Allan Stein, "Herbert" is haunted by memories of his own boyhood, particularly his odd, flamboyant mother. Moving from the late twentieth century back to the 1900s, effortlessly blending fact and fiction, Allan Stein is a charged exploration of eroticism, obsession, and identity., In this novel, after a sex scandal involving one of his students, an American high-school teacher flees to Paris, only to find himself falling in love with the skateboarding son of the French family who has taken him in.

It was virtually flawless and in great condition considering it wasn't brand new. But I bought it for it's content and am reading it already. Great quality and appearance I couldn't be happier with.
