"Bridge of sights” by Richard Russo

“Two boys grow up in Thomaston, upstate New York. Louis Charles Lynch, aka Lucy, marries his childhood sweetheart and settles down to run a small empire of convenience stores. He's a good man, but he isn't always as reliable as he seems, and secretly longs for what he can't have… His best friend Bobby escapes to Italy and becomes an artist, trading in past and family for a life far removed from Thomaston”.
