Tales Of The City

'A consummate entertainer... It is Maupin's Dickensian gift to be able to render love convincingly' - Edmund White, The Times Literary Supplement San Francisco, 1976. A naive young secretary, fresh out of Cleveland, tumbles headlong into a brave new world of laundromat Lotharios, pot-growing landladies, cut throat debutantes, and Jockey Shorts dance contests. The saga that ensues is manic, romantic, tawdry, touching, and outrageous - unmistakably the handwork of Armistead Maupin.
