Description
Quentin Crisp's autobiography is a candid and unflinching account of his life, from his early years as an English-born writer and actor to his experiences as a gay man in England before, during and after World War II. The book chronicles the challenges he faced due to his sexual orientation, as well as his careers as a book designer, prostitute and artist's model.
Published in 2017, this is the third and final installment of Crisp's autobiography, following on from his award-winning film adaptation of "The Naked Civil Servant" and his one-man show "An Evening With Quentin Crisp". The book also explores Crisp's later life in New York, where he wrote about style, culture and manners, appeared in numerous films and published a second autobiography.
With its unique blend of humor, wit and insight, this autobiography offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of a true original. It is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in LGBTQ history and culture.
