Twilight Manors in Palm Springs, God's Waiting Room

A Hilarious Romp Through Retirement!Why do gay men retire to Palm Springs? Because it's a great place to live and a fabulous place to die. When Brian and Stéphane retired and moved to Palm Springs, California, they never expected their lives to be turned upside down. They expected a quiet, peaceful retirement. But God had other plans. Instead of sunny days lounging by the pool, the aging couple discovered glory holes, nonagenarian cross-dressing neighbors, a lost pussy, an S&M-themed Thai restaurant, owl-collecting lesbians, nuns, a sad-looking anal chrysanthemum, Carol Channing, murder, and annoying mallards ... mostly annoying mallards. Twilight Manors in Palm Springs, God's Waiting Room, is a hysterical, laugh-out-loud romp. It follows the adventures of Brian, Stéphane, their friends and neighbors through a series of bizarre events that could only happen in Palm Springs, God's Waiting Room.
