Swish: My Quest to Become the Gayest Person Ever is a book that Dr. Dobson will probably want to read when it comes out on May 13, because among the many adventures Joel Derfner describes—his determination to sign up for needlepoint and flower arranging classes while still a child at summer camp, his claim to be the fiercest step aerobics instructor in the universe, his career in musical theater, his flirtation with go-go dancing, his commitment to fad diets and Internet dating—he carries out a spy mission at one of those Focus on the Family programs where they try to “cure” people of homosexuality. Apparently things get gnarly and he has to fight his way out with a feather boa or something—Broadway Books is not telling exactly what happens—but this title is shaping up to sell way more copies than his first literary venture, Gay Haiku.
