About this listen

Along with his groundbreaking essays that redefine politics, language, identity, and friendship in the light of gay experience and desire, this magisterial collection of 25 years of White's nonfiction writings includes dazzling subversive appreciations of cultural icons as diverse as Truman Capote and Cormac McCarthy, Robert Mapplethorpe and the singer formerly known as Prince.

A terrific “read”! Great stories, book reviews, author biographies, and personal reflections. Thoroughly enjoyable throughout. White knows who he is and lays it all out. He also knows what he likes, and doesn’t. Definitely worth paying attention to.
