Armistead Maupin is one of Britain''s leading writers of gay fiction. This biography reveals the journey that took Maupin from a middle class upbringing in North Carolina, to serve in the US Marines... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I loved this biography, found it to be a fascinating read which gave me insights into the story behind Tales Of The City. Armistead Maupin comes across as a likeable guy. I particularly enjoyed reading about his early years, brought up in an old Southern family with its traditions.
A Good Book about a Great Author

THis book seems to be an ode from one of Maupin's serious fans. It was great insight on Maupins, his life, and who he is. I suggest reading Maupins novels before looking into this.
Excellent book !

If you are a Tales of The City fan, an Armistead Maupin fan, you will love this book. I couldn't put the book down. It gives more detail than "Armistead Maupin Is A Man I Made Up" (movie), but in a similar fashion, with much input from Armistead himself.It is a little fix while waiting for the Night Listener to be published (which I am, anxiously)
