Now Batting for Boston: More Stories by J.G. Hayes is the second book by Hayes; its eight short stories are packed with brutal honesty, muscular passion and tough-but-tender prose.

This book takes readers inside the bars, housing projects and D Street bedrooms of South Boston “where a young man can feel like a stranger in his own skin, just trying to survive growing up gay among working-class, Irish-Catholics who don’t want to hear the hard truths about their sons.”
