By Edmund White
A VULTURE BOOK OF THE YEAR
"A raw, frightening, funny, and beautiful testimony." -Robert Jones, Jr.
“White's love of sex makes us proud to be human.” -John Irving
I'm at an age when writers are supposed to say finally what mattered most to them-for me it would be thousands of sex partners.
In his final memoir, the 85-year-old “paterfamilias of queer literature” (New York Times) recounted the seventy-plus years of sexual escapades that inspired his many masterpieces. Through tales of transactional sex, mutual admiration, open relationships, domination, submission, love, and loss, he painted an indelible portrait of queer history in America and abroad in a way only someone who has lived through it can.
Written with White's signature honesty, irreverence, and wit, The Loves of My Life is the culmination of a legend's life and work, a delightful and moving tour of over seventy years of being unabashedly gay and in love with love in all its forms.
