Author Edmund White Endorses Us! What an honor!
Edmund White, the great novelist, biographer, nonfiction writer and long-time community stalwart endorsed Dot Gay Alliance today. This is fantastic! Not only is support coming from the political and non-profit spheres, but now it’s coming from the arts as well.
White’s new memoir, City Boy, is a great and courageous read, btw. Amazing detail on Stonewall (he was there) and moving material on being a self-hating gay in therapy with a shrink to ‘get cured,’ not to mention some good dish on Susan Sontag, Jasper Johns, Gore Vidal and other boldfacers of the day.
If you missed this wild time of gay awakening in NYC, then it’s a must read. If you were there, it’s a rocky, rich trip down memory lane. Either way it’s a reminder of how much things have changed in 40 years. http://www.amazon.com/City-Boy-Life-During-1960s/dp/1596914025
