✦ Synopsis


Review

"An extended love letter to a magical San Francisco." -- New York Times Book Review

"Armistead Maupin is a first rate-world-class novelist, creating characters so vivid, complicated, tender, and true as to seem utterly timeless. . . .I'm willing to bet that fifty years from now Maupin's work will be read for its detailed descriptions of late twentieth century America, its rollicking humor and kind heart, its Chekovian compassion, its Wildean wit, its intricate. . .sometimes unbelievablle but always utterly irresistible plotlines." -- Stephen McCauley

"I love Maupin's books for very much the same qualities that make me love the novels of Dickens." -- --Christopher Isherwood

"I love Maupin's books for very much the same qualities that make me love the novels of Dickens." -- Christopher Isherwood

"Maupin has a genius for observation. His characters have the timing of vaudeville comics, flawed by human frailty and fueled by blind hope." -- Denver Post

"What makes Maupin's writing so rich and humorous is the way he juxtaposes the goings-on of irreversibly different worlds, flirtatiously overlapping them at times." -- St. Louis Post-Dispatch
