A book for any of us, gay or straight, who have had to find our family. Maupin is one of Americas finest storytellers.'Neil Gaiman'I fell in love with Maupins effervescent Tales of the City decades ago, and his genius turn at memoir is no less compelling. Logical Family is a must read.'Mary KarrIn this longawaited memoir, the beloved author of the bestselling Tales of the City series chronicles his odyssey from the old South to freewheeling San Francisco, and his evolution from curious youth to groundbreaking writer and gay rights pioneer.Born in the midtwentieth century and raised in the heart of conservative North Carolina, Armistead Maupin lost his virginity to another man 'on the very spot where the first shots of the Civil War were fired.' Realizing that the South was too small for him, this son of a traditional lawyer packed his earthly belongings into his Opel GT (including a beloved portrait of a Confederate ancestor), and took to the road in search of adventure. It was a journey that would lead him from a homoerotic Navy initiation ceremony in the jungles of Vietnam to that strangest of strange lands: San Francisco in the early 1970s.Reflecting on the profound impact those closest to him have had on his life, Maupin shares his candid search for his 'logical family,' the people he could call his own. 'Sooner or later, we have to venture beyond our biological family to find our logical one, the one that actually makes sense for us,' he writes. 'We have to, if we are to live without squandering our lives.' From his loving relationship with his palmreading Grannie who insisted Maupin was the reincarnation of her artistic bachelor cousin, Curtis, to an awkward conversation about girls with President Richard Nixon in the Oval Office, Maupin tells of the extraordinary individuals and situations that shaped him into one of the most influential writers of the last century.Maupin recalls his losses and lifechanging experiences with humor and unflinching honesty, and brings to life fleshandblood characters as endearing and unforgettable as the vivid, fraught men and women who populate his enchanting novels. What emerges is an illuminating portrait of the man who depicted the liberation and evolution of Americas queer community over the last four decades with honesty and compassionand inspired millions to claim their own lives.Logical Family includes blackandwhite photographs.
