5.0
One of the best memoirs I have ever read. It's lengthy, at 19.5 hours on audio, but the narrator's voice is lovely and the stories simply engrossing. Huge content warning for particularly explicit descriptions of sex. I would recommend this to other queer men who want a first-hand account of a very specific moment in American gay history. Fascinating.
Graphic: Sexual content
Moderate: Racial slurs, Racism, Rape, Sexism, and Sexual harassment
