    My Policeman

    Marion ist hingerissen von Tom, dem großen Bruder ihrer besten Freundin, einem unverschämt gutaussehenden jungen Mann mit blonden Locken und blauen Augen. Gleich bei der ersten Begegnung, da sind sie noch Teenager. Für sie ist er der Mann ihres Lebens, und so übersieht sie alle Zeichen, jeden Hinweis, dass Tom sich nicht für sie interessiert. Nicht für sie als Frau. Trotzdem hofft sie auf einen Heiratsantrag, und als er ihn endlich macht, ist sie glücklich. Ihre Liebe wird für sie beide reichen. Aber Tom hat ein anderes Leben, ist in andere Gefühle verstrickt. Sein ganzes Interesse gilt Patrick, dem Kurator des Museums in Brighton, der sich in Tom verliebt hat und ihm eine völlig neue Welt eröffnet. Für Tom ist die Ehe das sichere Versteck in einer Zeit, in der Homosexualität gesellschaftlich und gesetzlich geächtet ist. So teilen ihn die beiden Liebenden, bis einer es nicht mehr aushält und drei Leben ruiniert. Bethan Roberts erzählt diesen Roman aus Marions und aus Patricks Perspektive, zärtlich und mit großer Empathie. Es ist eine Geschichte verschwendeter Jahre, unmöglicher Liebe und durchkreuzter Hoffnungen in den 60er-Jahren, als sich die radikale Veränderung, wie man lebt und liebt, schon ankündigte, aber noch lange nicht lebbar war.
