Anotace knihy

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 true story of the emotional journey that led Bobby to this tragic conclusion. But it is also the story of Bobby's mother, Mary Griffith, 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.

The critically-acclaimed film Prayers for Bobby - adapted from the book by Leroy Aarons - stars Sigourney Weaver, Henry Czerny, Dan Butler and Ryan Kelley and was two-time Emmy Award nominated (Outstanding Made For Television Movie; Best Lead Actress - Sigourney Weaver) and won the 2010 GLAAD Award for Outstanding Movie / Miniseries.

Blackstone Publishing released the 30th Anniversary Edition of the audiobook - read by Wentworth Miller - in 2024.

The original edition of Prayers for Bobby was published in 1995 by HarperCollins.
