A consummate entertainer who has made a generation laugh...It is Maupin's Dickensian gift to be able to render love convincingly., "A consummate entertainer who has made a generation laugh...It is Maupin's Dickensian gift to be able to render love convincingly." (Edmund White, Times Literary Supplement), Perhaps the most sublime piece of popular literature America has ever produced.... As with the Beatles, everyone seems to like Maupin's tales--and really, why would you want to find someone who didn't?, An enormously talented writer--witty but always sympathetic, generous in showing us the secrets of his heart...By writing about what's seemingly different Armistead Maupin always manages to capture what's so hilariously painfully true for all of us.
