Track star Aidan, recruited for the college's acclaimed rugby team, is in danger of player rejection, especially after being caught luridly sniffing a teammate's mangled sneaker before the group's river canoe trip initiation.
Further embarrassment, high jinks, and homoerotic tomfoolery ensues. Will Aidan seduce or be seduced by Thiago, the rugged coach with piercing eyes, Donovan, the confident team captain with the jovial spirit, or Brutus, the team's mysterious new superstar recruit from Argentina?
From humiliation to unexpected tenderness, Canoe Trip is well-crafted, homoerotic short fiction (7,000 words) featuring young adults prevailing against alienation.
