San Francisco won't like this, but for the journalist Charles Kaiser, New York is the gay metropolis, no question. In writing this history, he mercifully abandons all pretension to sociological coverage, opting instead to interview an eclectic array of gay men (and two lesbians), to give us a rare glimpse into the city's closed, undocumented and largely forgotten gay worlds... Fascinating. - The TimesKaiser has ostensibly written a straightforward social history of gay life in Manhattan since 1940, but only the most blinkered of readers could consider this a "gay" book. It is a compulsively readable and persistently fascinating account of such universal human emotions as fear, loathing, outrage, prejudice, heartbreak and, ultimately, hope. - Sunday Times
