Reviews
A cultural touchstone that has enlarged our understanding of the varieties of human behavior…. Seen at last in its entirety, 'Tales of the City' remains an immensely readable accomplishment that wears its significance lightly…. Entertains, illuminates and -- as always -- leaves us wanting more., "A cultural touchstone that has enlarged our understanding of the varieties of human behavior.... Seen at last in its entirety, 'Tales of the City' remains an immensely readable accomplishment that wears its significance lightly.... Entertains, illuminates and -- as always -- leaves us wanting more." -- Washington Post "What makes Tales of the City so resonant is Maupin's ability to draw broad, human lessons from the particularity of his characters' lives. This is why it has struck such a chord for close to forty years.... An elegy -- for San Francisco, for its characters, for a way of life." -- Los Angeles Times "Whatever age we are when we read these books, we're all getting older, so it's hard -- maybe impossible -- not to insert ourselves into their fictional world. AIDS, cancer, and old age have done their worst, but these characters will survive forever.... Who could ask for anything more?" -- Slate "These final days of his San Francisco friends and lovers, gay and straight, are seriously moving.... Maupin deftly illustrates how far America and the pioneering Anna have come, and nearly forty years into the series, his writing remains wildly addictive but is deeper and richer." -- People

"These final days of his San Francisco friends and lovers, gay and straight, are seriously moving.... Maupin deftly illustrates how far America and the pioneering Anna have come, and nearly forty years into the series, his writing remains wildly addictive but is deeper and richer."-- People The last three novels of Armistead Maupin's bestselling, critically-acclaimed Tales of the City are now available for the first time as an omnibus edition. The epic series, published between 1978 and 2014, spans the decade before the AIDS crisis through the era of marriage equality following an unforgettable set of characters, whose diverse sexual identities helped set the social stage for the ongoing sexual revolution.

- b***y (102)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseI would say it was as described, but it was actually even better than expected, really lovely item and came very well-packed for shipping. Lots of care taken in the handling for shipping. Price for both item and shipping cost were more than fair. I have a recipe book that came out two years after this one by the same publisher. My grandmother used it as a regular go-to cookbook her whole life & then it came to me & I still use it too. Very excited to now have this companion volume to go with it!Reply from: psmike1230- Feedback replied by seller psmike1230.- Feedback replied by seller psmike1230.Thank you and enjoy the book.The Household Searchlight Homemaking Guide, Hardcover, 1937 (#135643964389)
