When you’ve always been told you’re wrong, finding a place that accepts you can be the most magical thing in the world.\nJohn has always seen things others could not see. He runs away to fabled London to find his fortune, but all he finds are grimy streets, rife with hangings and disease. Black Jack is a fast-talking pickpocket ready to show John a new life in the big city. When John first sees Shakespeare’s wondrous Globe theatre, he becomes convinced that this is where he truly belongs. But can Black Jack resist the urge to make some easy coin off of his new, naïve friend? And can John step up to the stage before the beast of the city swallows them both? AIRY NOTHING is a magical period tale of two boys finding friendship, love, and acceptance in seething Elizabethan London.

Review\n"A raw look into the tumultuous world of teenage love and loss ... a tour de force of emotions and self-discovery." 
- Kevin Craig, The Camino Club\n"Full-bodied immersion in teenage conversation about friendship, desire, and aspiration. It Helps with the Blues captures a young man's contradictory attitudes: what he wants, what he believes he knows, and how he senses he's crossing a threshold into the rest of his life. At seventeen, eighteen, one could fall in love, fall into the bottle, even fall out of life. Cebulski weaves a frank and tender gay story." 
- Tucker Lieberman, author of Bad Fire\nJules leaves. Gabriel rages. 
Estelle changes. Joshua hides.\nIn the aftermath of a classmate's suicide, a boy embroils himself in a community of Midwestern teens, each doing what they can to cope as they stumble—together and apart—toward a life worth living.
