Prior to the publication of this beloved novel, nearly every gay novel and play seemed to end in suicide -- or at least deep despair. Merrick was one of the first writers to insist that a gay relationship could in fact be a happy one. The Lord Won't Mind tells the story of Peter and Charlie, who begin a love affair at their Ivy League college in the '60s.
