Tales Of The City (#1)

Author(s): Armistead Maupin

Fiction

San Francisco, 1976. A naive young secretary, fresh out of Cleveland, tumbles headlong into a brave new world of laundromat Lotharios, pot-growing landladies, cut throat debutantes, and Jockey Shorts dance contests. The saga that ensues is manic, romantic, tawdry, touching, and outrageous - unmistakably the handwork of Armistead Maupin.

Fresh and immediate, the books transport the reader to a city socially, politically, and sexually in flux, experiencing with Maupin's dazzling array of characters the highs and lows of their lives in the City. -- Adam (staff)
