Ulster Gay Stephen Birkett

Matthew Woodhead has come out and thinks he has found the love of his life. He thought that once he'd gone through the trauma of coming out it would all be plain sailing but it wasn't so. Matt hadn't counted on the deeply ingrained attitudes of Northern Ireland's society in the 1980's. Matt and his friends battle against the twin prejudices of homophobia and sectarianism as the political situation deteriorates around them on their search for love and acceptance.'Ulster Gay' is the second in the Thrice Alien sequence which began with 'Ulster Alien.'
