Sex, Drugs & Disco: San Francisco Diaries from the Pre-AIDS Era, Paperback/Mark Abramson

Descriere

In the 1970s, thousands of young gay men flocked to San Francisco. Mark Abramson, author of the best-selling "Beach Reading" mystery series and the AIDS memoir "For My Brothers," was one of them. In a time and place where sex was free, drugs were cheap, and the driving disco beat felt like it would go on forever, he landed in the great gay Mecca fresh out of college, reconnected with his old friend, the writer John Preston and soon encountered such interesting people as Harvey Milk, Sylvester, Rock Hudson, Natalie Wood and Vincent Price. These are his raw, uncensored diaries. About the Author: Besides the popular "Beach Reading" mystery series, Mark Abramson is known as a producer of Men Behind Bars and mega-dance parties Pier Pressure and High Tea. The AIDS memoir, "For My Brothers," was his first major work of non-fiction and he hopes to publish more stories of his life in San Francisco before and after AIDS.
