Description

Armistead Maupin's final three novels in the Tales of the City series are collected in this comprehensive omnibus volume. By turns hilarious and heartbreaking, these novels offer a poignant blend of great storytelling and incisive social commentary on American culture from the 1970s through the first two decades of the new millennium. The series, which spans nearly forty years, follows the lives and legacies of a diverse group of characters whose sexual identities helped shape the social stage for the ongoing sexual revolution. This final volume, Goodbye Barbary Lane, brings closure to the lives of the characters through which generations have found connection to America's larger cultural struggles. With its adept dialogue, well-shaped characters, and intricate plotting, this collection is a testament to Armistead Maupin's skill as a writer.
