Big 4

From the short story collection, So They Say, “Big 4” tracks the early days of Rex’s new life in 1990s San Francisco and his budding relationship with larger than life real estate entrepreneur, Rand Osmond. The story, of the sometimes mercifully short jaunt between intense initial physical attraction and a connection more substantive, finds Rex happily poised to buy into that rarest of real estate—an emotional, psychological commitment between two eagerly consenting adults.
