The loves of my life : a sex memoir

White, Edmund, 1940-2025
Books, Manuscripts
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 gay canon.
