具体描述
Dance on My Grave: a life and a death in four parts, one hundred and seventeen bits, six running reports and two press clippings, with a few jokes, a puzzle or three, some footnotes and a fiasco now and then to help the story along is a 1982 young adult novel by British author Aidan Chambers. It is the second book in the Dance Sequence series.
It tells the story of a British teenager named Henry Robinson, detailing the events that led to his dancing on the grave of his slightly older friend, Barry Gorman, with whom Robinson had a love affair.
It was one of the first few young adult books published by a major publisher that depicts homosexuality without being judgmental and was included on ALA's and other libraries' list of books for gay teens. It has also been referred to in a number of books on children and young adult literature.
Because of its gay-positive theme, it was challenged at the Montgomery County Memorial Library System in 2004 by the Library Patrons of Texas.
作者简介
Born near Chester-le-Street, County Durham in 1934, Chambers was an only child, and a poor scholar; considered "slow" by his teachers, he did not learn to read fluently until the age of nine. After two years in the Royal Navy as part of his National Service, Chambers trained as a teacher and taught for three years at Westcliff High School in Southend on Sea before joining an Anglican monastery in Stroud, Gloucestershire in 1960. He later used his experience as a monk in his novel Now I Know.
His first plays, including Johnny Salter (1966), The Car and The Chicken Run (1968), were published while he was a teacher at Archway School in Stroud.
Chambers left the monastery in 1967 and a year later became a freelance writer. His works include the "Dance sequence" of six novels: Breaktime, Dance on My Grave, Now I Know, The Toll Bridge, Postcards from No Man's Land which won the 1999 Carnegie Medal and This is All: The Pillow Book of Cordelia Kenn. He and his wife, Nancy, founded Thimble Press and the magazine Signal to promote literature for children and young adults. They were awarded the Eleanor Farjeon Award for outstanding services to children's books in 1982. From 2003 to 2006 he was President of the School Library Association.

读后感
爱做为一个永恒的话题，它的对象是人类，而不是某个人，对于某个人来说，也也许是残酷的，尤其是对于少年。也许每个人都经历过那种青春期的孤独，那孤独蔓延的岁月里，友情和爱是救命稻草，但也许也会分不清楚，对于青春期的少年，爱都是挣扎，挣扎着走向成熟，走向死亡，这也...

评分在我看来，青春总是残酷的。 那是个刚刚拥有了成年人的力量，却不会正确使用的时期，懵懵懂懂，不知轻重，对任何事物都抱有完美的幻想。无论是狂烈的喜欢，还是残忍的伤害，都是不计后果随心而至的行为。青春的冲动必然会带来各种各样的伤痛，遍布在心灵上的伤口，就是成长。...
评分四哥： 你说我治好了你多年来出借书籍的恐惧症，我开心得有些惶恐。果然，这次你借一给二，还附上了笔力遒劲的小纸条，上书“据传该书有将直男掰弯的伟力……弯不弯由你”。虽然我认定了这是个圈套，因为无论弯与不弯，我一旦读了就自承为直男，丧失了神秘感。 可是《在我坟上...

Barry太自我而Hal太自怜，Kari一定是读者一开始最讨厌而最后最喜欢的角色。有意思的书，但是不属于最好的Young Adult Novel之列。
