The Loves of My Life - A sex Memoir

With his trademark wit, candour and relentlessly perceptive eye, Edmund White, the beloved 85-year-old ''paterfamilias of queer literature'' ( New York Times ) delves unflinchingly into the aspect of his life which has inspired so many of his masterpieces: sex. Documenting everything from covert fumblings in the repressed American Midwest of the 1950''s to the Arcadian gay debauchery of New York in the 1970''s; through the terror of HIV and the age of sex on the apps, White has seen - and experienced - it all.Unyieldingly honest, outrageously raucous and arrestingly touching, The Loves of My Life can but further cement White''s unquestionable role at the apex gay canon.>
