NSFW' THE TIMES'The gayest book ever written' HENRY HOKE, author of Open Throat'Daddy's diary fully delivers' JEREMY ATHERTON LIN, author of Gay Bar--------------------------------------------With his trademark wit, candour and relentlessly perceptive eye, Edmund White, the beloved 85-year-old 'paterfamilias of queer literature' (New York Times) delves unflinchingly into the aspect of his life which has inspired so many of his masterpieces: sex.Documenting everything from covert fumblings in the repressed American Midwest of the 1950's to the Arcadian gay debauchery of New York in the 1970's; through the terror of HIV and the age of sex on the apps, White has seen and experienced it all.Unyieldingly honest, outrageously raucous and arrestingly touching, The Loves of My Life can but further cement White's unquestionable role at the apex of the gay canon.--------------------------------------------'A pointillistic canvas of gay desire and male sexuality' RALF WEBB, GUARDIAN'Juicy, ebullient and ecstatic' OBSERVER'Wry, hilarious, moving and brilliantly unreserved' SE N HEWITT, author of Open, Heaven
