| Summary |
By all accounts, David Kaufman had a good life-he was married to a woman he loved, had two adult children, and a fulfilling career as a radiologist. But as the years passed, he realized that he could no longer deny who he was. When he told his wife that he was gay, her reaction was anything but expected: she confided in him that she had accepted the growing awareness that she, too, was gay. In Untying the Knot, David Kaufman shares a unique story of coming out and how he and his former wife have helped each other on their separate journey |
