Those extraordinary times of leather and lashes,
bears and ballerinas, sex, drugs and newly found
freedom leap from the pages.

I would even go so far to say there is an essence of
saga in Lou's writing

Some of us live in a world where being yourself can make others
uncomfortable. This is a story about being contented in your own skin,
but it's also a fascinating tale about the history of San Francisco from
the 1849 gold rush through the murders of mayor, George Moscone and
the city's first openly gay politician, Harvey Milk, to the devastation
caused by AIDS. It captures the magic of San Francisco and the area
just north of the city and weaves politics, the jarring events of one man's
personal life and a city's history together from a very earthy and some-
times brutally honest perspective. There is a thread of human kindness
and a real love of humanity that shines through and when you close the
cover you'll do it with a laugh and a tear.
For anyone who has lived the San Francisco
experience of the 70's, or those who wish they had,
this book is a must read. - Mark Letizia
It's not often I come across a book which is hard to put down.
Let No Stranger Wait Outside Your Door, a compelling,
well-written memoir, happens to be one of them.
