Proust, Cole Porter, Michelangelo, Marc Almond and Me

Drawn from years of archive material, this collection, first published in 1993, portrays the voices and experience of over sixty gay men from all walks of life. Here are presented the difficulties of coming out, but also the diverse nature of gay relationships and the impact of HIV and AIDS. Sometimes raw, often humorous, frequently angry, the book gives an honest impression of what it was like to live as a homosexual man in the twentieth century.
