In this gripping memoir of the AIDS years (19811996), Sarah Schulman recalls how much of the rebellious queer culture, cheap rents, and a vibrant downtown arts movement vanished almost overnight to be replaced by gay conservative spokespeople and mainstream consumerism. Schulman takes us back to her Lower East Side and brings it to life, filling these pages with vivid memories of her avantgarde queer friends and dramatically recreating the early years of the AIDS crisis as experienced by a political insider. Interweaving personal reminiscence with cogent analysis, Schulman details her experience as a witness to the loss of a generations imagination and the consequences of that loss.

This book really opened my eyes to the issues of gentrification and its deeper impact on culture. The author's insights are powerful and thought-provoking. I found myself reflecting on my own experiences in my neighborhood.

Important Message, Heavy Read
While I appreciated the themes in this book, I found the writing style a bit dense at times. The message about lost imagination is crucial, but it can be a challenging read. Worth it for those interested in social issues.

Disappointed by the Delivery
I was excited to read this, but the book arrived a week late, and the cover was slightly damaged. The content is good, but the shipping experience was frustrating. Hope they improve their logistics.

Engaging but Needs More Depth
I liked the book's premise, but I expected a deeper exploration of the imagination part. It touches on important subjects, yet I felt some areas needed more elaboration. Still, I enjoyed it overall.
