A series of discrete episodes among friends provide snapshots of one gay man’s life. There are parties, concerts, dinners with everyday life - and death - interwoven in the rich story-telling. An actress, a painter, a set designer, a writer - all sweating and surviving in Manhattan, all scoring their first successes. Part autobiography and part documentary, artfully written, it details the lives of these creative people. Young and professional, they know there is more to life than money. There is trust and the sort of love that trades in deeds of kindness.

Leventhal’s debut novel was welcomed warmly garnering a Lambda Literary Awards Finalist in 1988, this new edition features a 2020 foreword by Christopher Bram.
