No Safeguards, the first in a trilogy, follows Jay and his brother
Paul from childhood to young adulthood. We witness the destructive
impact of fundamentalist Christian beliefs on their mother and
father, opposition to those beliefs by the boys' grandmother and
each boy's very different response to their parents' religiosity.
This becomes even more poignant after they leave their
grandmother's comfortable home in St. Vincent to join their mother
in Montreal. The revelation that both boys are gay adds to their
sense of oppression and divides them from their mother, whose views
are shaped by the church and the theology of the Torah.
