Description

A moving story about love, AIDS, grief, and memory by one of the most adventurous writers to come out of San Francisco's LGBTQ+ scene. This book is based on the author's relationship with Ed Aulerich-Sugai, whom he met in 1970. The story spans eight years, from their initial meeting to their eventual separation, and follows Ed as he explores the realms of sex and art. The book also delves into the author's own experiences, including his struggles with HIV and his work as a proponent of New Narrative writing. Through tales of love, loss, and longing, the book takes readers on a journey through the San Francisco of the early 1980s. The result is a hybrid work that blends fact and fiction, shifting between registers to convey the complexity of memory and experience.
