'Stonewall' is pitch-perfect. Thomas Long, editor, Harrington Gay Men's Fiction Quarterly. ...And perfect to celebrate Stonewall 50. Richard Labonte, founder, A Different Light Bookstore: A sterling collection...perfectly catches our bitchy bravura. Mark Thompson, Advocate editor: Hilarious, exquisite, empowering stories about how fabulous we are.
Jack Fritscher, at eighty, is the San Francisco author whose 50-year career coincides with Stonewall 50 itself. At Stonewall, he wrote, gay character changed. As award-winning historian, magazine editor, and filmmaker who wrote his 1967 dissertation on Tennessee Williams, he is a vivid stylist who represents gay literature as American literature in 20 books including his memoir of his lover Robert Mapplethorpe, Mapplethorpe: Assault with a Deadly Camera, and his Lammy Finalist and ForeWord Magazine Book of the Year winner, Some Dance to Remember: A Memoir-Novel of San Francisco 1970-1982.
The Advocate wrote: Fritscher writes...wonderful books...he made the Castro mythic. Willie Walker, founder, San Francisco GLBT Historical Society, observed: Fritscher is a prolific writer who since the late 1960s has helped document the gay world and the changes it has undergone.
Guided by a veteran elder's canonical sense of gaydar, Fritscher celebrates gay drama, diversity, and magical thinking in these ten tales scanning the curvature of the Queer Earth--from the 1906 earthquake in Meet Me in San Francisco through the campfest last hour before the NYPD raid in Stonewall: June 27, 1969, 11 PM, and up to gay marriage in Mrs. Dalloway Went That-A-Way. Recommended for libraries, LGBT studies, and gay pop-culture collections.
