Crossing the Center Line

Jackie Calhoun

Best selling author Jackie Calhoun left a long term marriage when she could no longer deny her sexual orientation. Crossing the Center Line is autobiographical fiction in that Ms. Calhoun has chosen to share part of her own experience through Michael, a husband and father who comes to realize he's gay.


Crossing the Center Line powerfully portrays Michael's struggle with his own internalized homophobia. As Michael comes to terms with his own sexuality, he confronts the external pressures which have kept him in the closet for so long and led to the clandestine sexual acts which will end his marriage.


Like Michael, Ms. Calhoun loved her spouse and feared losing the love and respect of her children. In this emotionally realized journey, Ms. Calhoun conveys the anguish inherent in the demise of a marriage based on trust, friendship and the raising of children.
