Great!

This was one of the first gay books I read, as a closeted teenager. I thought it was great. The author traveled the country speaking to gay men and lesbians. The interviewees were racially diverse too. In retrospect, this book may be in striking contrast to Edmund White's book where his informants were, supposedly, just the guys with whom he hooked up. You can also tell how this book was a stepping stone for Miller's next book where he spoke to gay men and lesbians in foreign countries. This book speaks of the 1980s and may seem dated now. However, then it was fresh and innovative. I think readers won't regret finding a copy and reading it from cover to cover.
