Theory of Relativity Wade Rouse is the author of four hilarious memoirs about his lovely gay life; his most recent—hitting shelves in February—is called It’s All Relative: Two Families, Three Dogs, 34 Holidays and 50 Boxes of Wine. It may be a big title, but the book more than lives up to it. Each of its essays is based around a holiday—including the big ones (particularly insane Halloween costumes, wonderfully bizarre Eater traditions ), the seldom-celebrated (uncover the gay Mecca that is Home Depot on Arbor Day) and the not-quite-holidays (Oscar Night predictions never seemed more desperately important).
